The 5th International Summer School on Disaster Management IS CANCELLED due to concerns over the spread of Covid-19. We value the most the safety and well-being of our students and staff, therefore the cancellation of the event due to take place in July was the wise choice to make, but not the easiest. We will miss meeting you this year.
Stay safe and we are looking forward to welcoming you with a more positive outlook for 2021!
