The study examines a vast panorama of the policies on which depend the living and working conditions of young people. Measures were examined that can be enacted on a regional level starting from the concrete experience of 6 Regional Governments in as many European countries. The book shows that a true "Youth Guarantee" must guarantee support for the complexity of the transitions that characterise young person's life and shows how this must be adapted to the different conditions the various segments of young population live in. The wealth and variety of concrete experiences offered by regional policies show how it is possible to activate public ations that, having adequate ingredients, will be able to lessen the negative effects of the economic crisis and allow young people to take one step ahead at any time in their private and professional life.

Volcanic Hazards, Risks, and Disasters provides you with the latest scientific developments in volcano and volcanic research, including causality, impacts, preparedness, risk analysis, planning, response, recovery, and the economics of loss and remediation. It takes a geoscientific approach to the topic while integrating the social and economic issues related to volcanoes and volcanic hazards and disasters. Throughout the book case studies are presented of historically relevant volcanic and seismic hazards and disasters as well as recent catastrophes, such as Chile's Puyehue volcano eruption i

Der Lehrstuhl für Angewandte Geologie der Universität Karlsruhe (AGK) arbeitete in Kooperation mit der INATURA Dornbirn und der Vorarlberger Landesregierung am Projekt Georisikokarte Vorarlberg. Es wurde eine Methodik vorgeschlagen, um die Gefährdung für Hangrutschungen und Felsstürze regional auszuweisen. Die so erstellten Karten sind ein Instrument für die regionale Siedlungs- und Raumplanung und sollen nicht nur Ingenieuren und Raumplanern, sondern auch lokalen Behörden und der ansässigen Bevölkerung einen Einblick in die Naturgefahren geben.

Le séminaire de formation avancée qui s'est tenu à Delphes, du 25 au 27 mars 1990, prenait place dans la série des réunions organisées par le Centre Européen de Coordination, Recherche et Documentation en Sciences Sociales (Vienne, Autriche), sous le thème général « Interdisciplinarité dans les sciences sociales ». Dans ce cadre, à partir de 1987, un groupe de chercheurs de formations très variées, appartenant aussi bien à l'Europe de l'Est qu'à l'Europe de l'Ouest, avait mis au premier plan de ses objectifs l'application des méthodes de travail inter et transdisciplinaires dans le domaine de la « gestion des risques et des crises ». Les orientations de ces chercheurs, réunis ultérieurement dans un Groupe d'Études Européen sur le Risque et la Crise (G.E.E.R.C.) ont été illustrées à Delphes dans une étude de cas consacrée au risque sismique. Autour de sismologues et géophysiciens, spécialistes de la dynamique de l'écorce terrestre, des sociologues, géographes, géologues, économistes, juristes, historiens, administratifs, ont mis en évidence la nature multidimensionnelle de ce risque, dont une gestion efficace implique que soit établie une communication réelle entre de multiples experts, décideurs et gestionnaires.

This book explores a platform for insightful discussions and scientific discourse on various aspects of landslides and their risk management, with insights focused on the Himalayan states at a sub-regional level. A fundamental reference is thus provided for further research not only in landslides but also in associated natural hazards. The book is divided into four major parts, starting from conceptual models in approaching landslide risk, followed by evaluation of risk, management of landslide risk, end-to-end solutions for landslide risk assessment, and a synopsis. Included are topics such as the nature of landslide hazard impact, scale dependency in landslide hazard and risk analysis, and systematic procedures of landslide hazard mapping for risk assessment using spatial prediction models. The book also covers such important aspects as the response of the insurance industry to landslide risk and the role of administrative bodies in landslide risk assessment and sustainable management. Readers gain ample knowledge through case studies regarding the types of landslides in the Himalayan region, which will help them in their future research hypotheses.
