PANTHEON Project

📢 PANTHEON Project Use Case 1: Tackling Wildfires in Attica 🔥 Imagine a wildfire outbreak in the region of Attica, Greece. ❓How can we prepare and respond more effectively? 🎯Our consortium is trying to revolutionise disaster management with cutting-edge simulations and decision support tools. Check out below our planning and implemented technologies! #wildfire #IoT #satellites #UAV #disastermanagement #AI #smartcities #communityresilience #disastermanagement #digitaltwins #machinelearning #artificialintelligence #datamapping #disasterresponse #horizoneurope

#AI and #satellitedata in the service of #disasterresponse and #sustainability! The company Satelytics was able to help Duke Energy restore power faster by mapping damage in real-time during hurricanes Helene and Milton. The company's mission is to prevent situations from turning into problems before spiralling out of control. Click below to learn more about the influence of tech when it comes to disaster response.

In the wake of the current wildfires in California, the role of social resilience in the aftermath of a disaster becomes central. Research shows that the re-establishment of daily routines, infrastructure and community networks could contribute to quicker recovery. The phrase “Learn and Unlearn” could be showing us how to be better prepared to respond to a disaster by respecting and connecting with the affected populations. Read the Monash University article to discover the “Sphere of Influence Framework” and dive deeper into how individual, collective and structural spheres come into contact during the recovery period, all for the sake of fostering increased resilience. #disasterresilience #communityrecovery #wildfires #disasterrecovery 

🌍Is disaster training actually working? As disasters grow more frequent and severe, ensuring that disaster management professionals are prepared is critical. 💡But how can we measure the real-world impact of training programs? Researchers at National Center for Disaster Preparedness, Columbia Climate School, Columbia University are using the Kirkpatrick Model to tackle this challenge. 🔎The focus: Level 3 evaluation, which examines how training translates into action during real-life disaster response and recovery. 💡“If a training program is focusing on life-saving measures, we have to do everything we can to ensure it’s really adding value,” says researcher Thomas Chandler.

📢 PANTHEON Project Use Case No.2: Enhancing Earthquake Resilience in Attica 🏘️ It’s time to bring to light our second case study focusing on the natural phenomenon of earthquakes and how to deal with them! ❓So, how can we support emergency services and communities before and after an earthquake? 🎯Our consortium has been developing an innovative disaster management strategy boosted by the implementation of cutting-edge simulations and decision support tools. Check out the full #PANTHEONproject plan for the earthquake use case!! #earthquake #earthquakesafety #IoT #satellites #UAV #disastermanagement #AI #smartcities #communityresilience #disastermanagement #digitaltwins #machinelearning #artificialintelligence #datamapping #disasterresponse #horizoneurope

✨ Happy Holidays, everyone! 🥂This holiday season, let’s reflect on the strength and unity of our communities. May we continue to support and protect each other in the year ahead, building a future where everyone thrives. 💪🏻 Let’s make 2025 a year to remember!

📢 People with disabilities are hit hardest during crises, from armed conflicts to natural disasters! They face greater risks like… 👉 being unable to evacuate 👉 lack of access to shelters 👉 missing out on vital healthcare. Handicap International - Humanity & Inclusion (HI) is working to change that, ensuring disability inclusion in humanitarian responses across 15 countries in 2023, including Gaza, Ukraine, and Bangladesh. By training local organisations and providing direct support, HI ensures no one is left behind in times of crisis. #DisabilityInclusion  #DisabilityAwareness #HumanRights #CrisisResponse #HI #HumanitarianAid #DisasterRelief 

🌍 Regional leaders commit to advancing disaster resilience! 🌍 The 6th High-Level Meeting on the Sendai Framework concluded during the 13th Caribbean Conference on Comprehensive Disaster Management.  Ministers from across the Americas and the Caribbean pledged to strengthen actions on systemic #riskmanagement, resilient financing, and inclusive strategies to address climate challenges. The meeting reaffirmed support for the “Early Warnings for All” initiative and focused on gender-inclusive resilience. As the region prepares for the 8th Global Platform for Disaster Risk Reduction (#gp2025), its collective commitment ensures continued progress towards a safer, more sustainable future for all. #disasterriskreduction #climateresilience #disastermanagement #communityresilience

🚨New AI tool generates realistic satellite images of future flooding. Massachusetts Institute of Technology scientists have developed a groundbreaking AI model that combines #generative AI with a physics-based flood model to create realistic satellite images of potential flooding. By visualising how areas could look after storms, this tool helps communities prepare for upcoming disasters and make better evacuation decisions. In tests, the AI-generated images were far more accurate and realistic than previous methods, providing valuable insights for risk-sensitive scenarios. This innovation could transform how we respond to climate risks and save lives. #flooding #climatechange #sustainability #generativeai #disasterpreparedness
