Coffee and registration of participants

8:00 am - 8:20 am

Welcome and introduction

8:20 am - 8:50 am

KEYNOTE SPEAKER

David McCormack

8:50 am - 9:50 am

LEARNING FROM THE PAST

What can we learn from historical archives, inventories compiled over several years, or the scars left in the territory that we discover thanks to aerial lidar surveys?

Great examples will be given in this session

9:50 am - 10:20 am

Coffee Break and Poster session

10:20 am - 11:50 am

DECRYPTING GEOHAZARDS 1

The study of events and their characteristics helps better preduct failures. In this session, different aspects related to landslides in clays are discussed: study of quaternary deposits, hydrogeology, landslide modeling and failure mechanism.

11:50 am - 1:15 pm

Lunch

1:15 pm - 1:45 pm

KEYNOTE SPEAKER

Jean Hutchinson

1:45 pm - 3:00 pm

LIVING WITH LANDSLIDES

The deployment of a monitoring or a warning system is sometimes the recommended solution for living with landslides. This session gives real examples of slope monitoring and early warning.

3:00 pm - 3:30 pm

Coffee Break and Poster session

3:30 pm - 4:30 pm

REFLECTION ON RISK MANAGEMENT AND ITS COMMUNICATION

Assessing the level of risk that a hazards represents is never easy. Communicating it effectively is more complicated! The authors will critically address various aspects of risk assessment.

4:30 pm - 6:30 pm

Poster session

6:30 pm - 6:45 pm

Departure for the Colour Night

Tuesday, June 14 2022

7:00 am - 8:00 am

Coffee and registration of participants

8:00 am - 8:30 am

KEYNOTE SPEAKER

Suzanne Lacasse

8:30 am - 10:00 am

PROTECTING AGAINST GEOHAZARDS

This session presents various aspects of mitigation strategies applied to debris flows, avalanches, coastal landslides and landslides in sensitive clays showing exemples of mitigation and methods to avoid exposure.

10:00 am - 10:30 am

Coffee Break

10:30 am - 11:45 am

DECRYPTING GEOHAZARDS 2

This session brings together authors who search why and how landslides behave. A number of numerical and conceptual models to explain failure mechanism and to assess post-failure behaviour will be presented

11:45 am - 1:00 pm

Lunch

1:00 pm - 1:30 pm

KEYNOTE SPEAKER

Lukas Arenson

1:30 pm - 3:00 pm

THE EFFECT OF CLIMATE ON GEOHAZARDS

The extremes of Mother Nature are probably the main generator of natural hazards. This session brings together the work of authors who study the links between weather conditions and geohazards

3:00 pm - 3:30 pm

Coffee Break

3:30 pm - 4:00 pm

KEYNOTE SPEAKER

Pascal Locat

4:00 pm - 4:45 pm

LEARNING FROM THE EXPERIENCE OF OUR FELLOWS

We end the conference with the presentation of three study cases dealing with various materials that flow.
