The recent droughts and unprecedented floods in Central Europe reveal our vulnerability to extreme weather. Besides climate change as a driver of more frequent and intensifying extreme events, demographic change and socio-economic development exacerbate severe impacts. International frameworks for disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation acknowledge the critical need for integrating risk governance, communication and operational mechanisms for coping with extreme climate events throughout the Disaster Risk Management cycle. DIRECTED aspires to foster disaster-resilient European societies by expanding our capabilities to communicate, utilise and exchange data, information and knowledge between different actors. The project strives to boost the integration, accessibility and interoperability of models, facilitating knowledge sharing and improving dialogue and cooperation on all levels of the Disaster Risk Management cycle. Four regional and municipal Real World Labs in the Capital Region of Denmark, the Danube Region, the Emilia Romagna Region, Italy and the Rhine-Erft District, Germany, are central to the bottom-up, value-driven co-development approach. The Real World Labs ensure the continuous and active involvement of key stakeholders in the development process. and the addressing of topical multi-hazard risk management and climate change adaptation problems. A DATA-FABRIC, an innovative, federated, cloud platform, will enable the secure and flexible discovery and sharing of structured and unstructured data. Through an interdisciplinary approach that brings together natural and social scientists, data experts, local stakeholders as well as first and second responders DIRECTED builds lasting real-world partnerships and leverages synergies for Disaster Risk Reduction and Climate Impact Adaptation efforts in Europe.
