Community of Practice | Advancing Risk Analysis through Key Risk Assessment
After the summer break, the CLIMAAX Community of Practice is back with a new webinar series! This autumn, our sessions will focus on supporting the practical implementation of the CLIMAAX Framework and Toolbox, starting with the updated Step 4: Key Risk Assessment. This step guides users in both interpreting and prioritising the results of climate risk assessment workflows.
Participants will be introduced to the concepts of severity, urgency, and adaptive capacity, and to the Risk Evaluation Dashboard. A real-world example from Riga, Latvia, will showcase how the approach is applied in practice, and a hands-on group exercise will provide the opportunity to explore the Dashboard in action.
As a pivotal element of the Framework, Step 4 bridges the gap between risk analysis and decision-making. It is particularly relevant for regions finalising their assessments and sets the stage for the upcoming hazard-specific webinars (e.g., floods, heatwaves).
