LNEC Lisbon Conference 2023 "Floods, Water Scarcity and Extreme Events" - Taking place at LNEC on the 19th and 20th of October 2023.
'Extreme hydro-meteorological events, such as inland flooding, coastal storms and severe water scarcity, have major social, economic and environmental impacts. These adverse impacts may be exacerbated by climate change. It is therefore important to better understand extreme events and water security challenges, and to take action to reduce increasing risks. In particular, there is a need to adopt strategies to increase the resilience of cities and critical infrastructure.
The aim of the LNEC Lisbon Conference 2023 is to discuss how the research community, in collaboration with local authorities and citizens, can contribute with tools and solutions to address these water-related challenges.
We look forward to the new ideas, knowledge and experience of the lectures, presentations by representatives of research institutions and academia, and the debates, which we hope will inspire us and truly influence our future strategies and actions.
Although participation is free of charge, registration is mandatory.
