This webinar will challenge the traditional boundaries of critical infrastructure risk assessments\, encouraging interdisciplinary approaches and highlighting the diversity of solutions that can arise from multiple perspectives. We will focus on building a community and identifying key players in various fields\, while recognizing that there is no one “right” way to approach critical infrastructure risk modelling. Together\, we will identify the top 20 unsolved problems and future directions\, fostering a collaborative and innovative community dedicated to advancing critical infrastructure research across scientific domains. Don’t miss this opportunity to expand your understanding and contribute to the future of critical infrastructure development. \n  \nBios: \nElco Koks is an Assistant Professor within the Water and Climate Risk group at the Institute for Environmental Studies (Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam) and a Honorary Research Associate within the Oxford Programme of Sustainable Infrastructure Systems (OPSIS).
