Dear colleagues, dear prospective participant,

We are pleased to invite you to the final conference (online) of our PARADeS project (www.parades.info) on “Managing Flood Disaster Risk in Ghana- Findings, Products, and Recommendations” to be held on the 23rd of November 2023 from 13:00 – 17:00 CET.

The objective of the conference is to disseminate the research project consortium's findings, share valuable learning experiences, and showcase the produced products. With this, we aim to connect back to scholars and practitioners in this field who followed, supported our research journey and/or will be able to build on our results. The conference will also offer the opportunity to connect to the other participants and engage in an open discussion on the remaining challenges to managing flood disaster risk in Ghana and other regions.

This event has the potential to inspire new perspectives on Flood Disaster Risk Management (FDRM), both in practical applications and research, whether in Ghana or in other regions. We hope we have gained your interest in attending this webinar.
