The International EcorisQ Association (ecorisQ) is a global community of professionals who promote sustainable, where possible nature-based, solutions for natural hazard risk reduction. We do this by bringing together science and practice for the development and dissemination of transparent tools for natural hazard and risk analyses. Further we facilitate international cooperation and stimulate the exhange of knowledge, as well as the standardisation of methods.
