CHEERS

Heavy rain, landslides and avalanches: in the last years, weather extremes are increasing more and more in the Alps. The article speaks about AIT (Austrian Institute of Technology) and the development of new solutions to climate change disasters in the cities. CHEERS is mentioned, as well, in relation to the development of a safeguarding method of cultural heritage based on digital technologies.

This is the title of the first project deliverable. It is intended to frame the state of the art and capitalize on existing knowledge in defining the concept of Alpine cultural heritage, in relation to its environment and the natural hazards it is exposed to in the Alps.

Our Project Manager Giulia Pesaro will fly to Prague on 27 of June to talk about CHEERS at the Conference of ProteCHt2save.

Last 12th June, AIT Austrian Institute of Technology held a workshop in Dürnstein with several national stakeholders to discuss about past disaster cases and best practice.

The Slovenian Forestry Institute and the Idrija Mercury Heritage Management Centre hosted, on 13th of June 2019 in Ljubljana, a national meeting involving the Observers and the Stakeholders of the Cheers Project.
