The National Volcano Early Warning System and National Landslide Hazards Reduction Program are federal efforts to reduce risk and losses from domestic volcanoes and landslides. In this session co-organized by both programs, speakers will provide an overview of their efforts, share examples of effective multi-agency partnerships, discuss advances in federal science and community risk reduction, and present new nationwide science efforts to bridge gaps. The audience will be encouraged to provide feedback on the role of federal science in reducing risk in underserved and rural communities, as well as the information needed for local decision-making.
