UW took part in the European Researchers' Night which was organized by RANNÍS, this past Saturday in Reykjavík. Matthias Kokorsch, academic director of CRD, and Jóhanna Gísladóttir, environmental manager from the Agricultural University of Iceland, presented their research project on small communities and the societal impacts of avalanche risk, using 3D models of the Westfjords to explain.

The project is part of a research collaboration by ClicNord and therefor very much current within the Master's Programme of Coastal Communities and Regional Development at UW.
