PEARL

EU Seventh Framework Programme
Preparing for Extreme and Rare Events in Coastal Regions

The PEARL project aims at developing adaptive risk management strategies for coastal communities focusing on extreme hydro-meteorological events, with a multidisciplinary approach integrating social, environmental and technical research and innovation. PEARL will consider all fundamentals in the risk governance cycle, focusing on the enhancement of forecasting, prediction and early warning capabilities and the building of resilience and reduction of risk through learning from experience and the avoidance of past mistakes. The project is organized in eight different work packages addressing different aspects of the holistic flood risk management (WP1-WP6), dissemination (WP7) and the project management activities (WP8).
