Risk Frontiers Seminar Series 2022

Thursday 27th October 2022, 2:30 pm – 4:30 pm AEST (At the Museum of Sydney)

Risk Frontiers is excited about the return of its Seminar for 2022 as an in person event. Since it was last held this way we have experienced the 2019/20 Black Summer bushfire season followed up by two seasons of devastating floods among other events.

Join Risk Frontiers and special guests for presentations covering our climate drivers and the relationship of these to the occurence of natural hazards, how Risk Frontiers is updating its models to account for this correlation, and fire and flood resilience.
