First Announcement
The International Workshop

"Tsunami Mitigation Beyond 2000"

Organized jointly by the IUGG Tsunami Commission (IUGG/TC) and
the International Co-ordination Group for the Tsunami Warning System in the
Pacific (ICG/ITSU) in Cartagena, Colombia on October 5-6, 2001
in conjunction with ITSU-XVIII

Convened by Viacheslav Gusiakov (Russia) and François Schindelé (France)

In response to the ITSU-XVII recommendations, the International Workshop 'Tsunami Mitigation Beyond 2000' will be organized in Cartagena, Colombia on October 5 to 6, 2001 in conjunction with the XVIII Session of the ICG/ITSU. This will be the third workshop of a series of three workshops organized jointly by the IUGG Tsunami Commission (IUGG/TC) and the International Co-ordination Group of the Tsunami Warning System in the Pacific (ICG/ITSU). The focus of the first workshop held in Seoul, Korea in October of 1999 was on the operational aspects of tsunami warnings. The second workshop held in Moscow, Russia in June of 2000 was devoted to the methods of the long-term tsunami risk calculation and hazard assessment. The workshop in Cartagena will be mainly oriented on practical methods of tsunami mitigation and will be of interest to a wide community of researchers, emergency managers, decision makers and other practitioners dealing with assessment and mitigation of tsunami hazard. These workshops complement the recommendation of the Tsunami Master Plan of the further development of the tsunami program in the years after 2000 and assist in developing regional tsunami mitigation programs, e.g. in the Intra-America Sea region.

The objectives of the Cartagena workshop are: (1) to review the-state-of-art knowledge on the tsunami mitigation and preparedness; (2) to exchange national experiences on the development of countermeasures; (3) to formulate the recommendations on the actions required for the tsunami disaster reduction

Specific topics for the discussions during the Workshop will be:

  1. reaction to tsunami warnings on national, regional and local levels
  2. tsunami inundation maps, their impact on land use planning and construction codes
  3. engineering methods of tsunami protection
  4. tsunami education and public awareness, national and regional programs

The workshop format will include talks given by leading experts, presentations of participants and round-table discussions.

The language of the Workshop will be English.
