Extreme Wildfire Events, Event 1 - Forestry Speed Dating
On 23 October 2024 at 15:00 CEST, the Bioregions Facility and FIRE-RES are organising the first webinar of the Extreme Wildfire Events Series. The webinar brings together three innovators working on developing solutions that efficiently and effectively address wildfire risk and integrated fire management in Europe and beyond. HoZe Solutions, Mosaico, and Trigan are innovative platforms focused on risk mitigation, community engagement, and disaster management. HoZe Solutions offers critical infrastructure owners and managers a proprietary dashboard to assess wildfire risks, visualize defensible spaces, and simulate potential wildfires based on experimental data, providing cost-effective fire suppression strategies. Mosaico focuses on proactive wildfire prevention through agro-silvopastoral practices, integrating agriculture, livestock, and forestry to restore landscapes and enhance resilience in communities like Las Hurdes, Spain. Trigan leverages AI and digital tools to empower urban communities to address shared challenges through democratic decision-making, resource allocation, and continuous feedback for disaster management. Together, these projects aim to enhance resilience and reduce wildfire risks.Date: 23 October 2024, 15:00 CEST
