New and innovative approaches are needed to achieve people-centred EWS for systemic risk and cascading hazards. In this joint webinar with the Risk KAN group and Early Warning Systems Young Professionals group, we aim to highlight the scientific, in-practice contributions and perspectives of Early Career Researchers (ECR) and Young Professionals (YPs) to advance knowledge in the technical and social sciences components of the field.  

Finally we hope to collaboratively develop a vision on how to create a systematic shift to embed compound risk into EWS and highlight the joint role of ECR/ YPs and senior professionals in achieving this. Join us to have your say on how ECR/YPs can advance the field or knowledge and practice.
