Capacities and skills for locally-led knowledge co-production for managing climate and disaster risk in Europe: lessons from the DIRECTED project

Webinar 4 – Capacities and skills for locally-led knowledge co-production for managing climate and disaster risk in Europe: lessons from the DIRECTED project with Lydia Cumiskey, Senior Postdoctoral Researcher at MaREI, University College Cork, on the 16th April at 12pm. 

Lydia is a senior postdoctoral researcher at MaREI, the Research Ireland Centre for Energy, Climate and Marine in the Environmental Research Institute at University College Cork. Over the past 10 years Lydia has worked in applied research and consultancy projects in the areas of risk communication, integrated flood risk management, climate adaptation and disaster risk reduction. Creativity and interactivity inspire her work, as well as enabling multi-stakeholder collaboration, co-creation and partnership.
She currently works in an European Horizon funded project called DIRECTED aiming to enhance disaster resilience for extreme climate events by providing interoperable data, models, communication and governance. Her role relates to developing and applying a risk governance framework and knowledge co-production processes (Risk-Tandem) in Real World Labs across Europe to facilitate integration across Disaster Risk Management (DRM) and Climate Change Adaptation (CCA).
