For Young Researchers

The TMR Grant
A limited number of grants to facilitate participation of young researchers (under 35) from EU countries (and from countries associated with the Fourth Framework Program) was available.

Presentations by Young Researchers
The final day of the conference (July 9) was devoted to presentations by students and young scientists. These young persons represented the EC TMR Program, the IIASA Young Scientists Summer Program and the young scientists program of Japan's Institute for Disaster Prevention at Kyoto University. A few participants from other post graduate research programs were also involved. This final day gave young persons an opportunity to present their research and receive feedback from experienced scientists, industry persons and policy makers. The quality of the papers was impressive, and the presentations resulted in significant insights into new research perspectives.
