4th European Conference on Flood Risk Management

We have been monitoring the COVID-19 pandemic, for some time, and the organising committee would like to announce their decision to postpone FLOODrisk2020 until 21st-25th June 2021. This has not been an easy decision to make but there have been 2 main factors behind this decision.

We are obviously aware of the COVID-19 pandemic and will be monitoring health and travel developments over the coming weeks and months.

We would like to send you all our best wishes for this new year 2020. We are excited that this year will make the 4th edition of the European Conference on Flood Risk Management and look forward to seeing you in Budapest from 31st August to 4th September 2020. 

Registration will open very shortly, but in the mean time don't forget that you are able to support the conference whilst promoting your business to an estimated 500 delegates from over 30 different countries (based on the 2012 and 2016 attendance) . From Gold to Bronze packages, to the possibility of renting an exhibition space within the historical building of BME University to the possibility of supporting the conference dinner, the ice breaker or the delegates bags, each package comes with its own unique benefits.

To find out more please visit the website on https://floodrisk2020.net/sponsors--exhibitors/ or contact us on sponsor@floodrisk2020.net. 

We are very pleased to announce that after a very thorough review of all of the abstracts submitted by our scientific committee, we have accepted 144 papers for oral presentation and 96 papers for poster presentation and all authors should by now have been informed.

This will allow us to reduce our programme to include 5 parallel sessions instead of the usual 6, thus following the recommendations given to us during the last conferences both in Lyon and previously in Rotterdam. 

We are of course once again working on including some amazingly interesting and insightful special sessions in the programme as these attracted much enthusiasm and interest in the past. We will keep you informed of progress on the programme for these special sessions in due course.

The registration system will be opened shortly, so watch this space for information on this. 

We are still looking for sponsors and exhibitors to support the conference and make it even more interesting for our participants so don't hesitate to visit our website on www.floodrisk2020.net/sponsors--exhibitors/ for more information on this or contact us. 

The review of the abstracts submitted for the FLOODrisk2020 conference is completed and we are very pleased to say that we have been overwhelmed by the quality of the submissions that we have received.

The organising committee is pleased to announce that it has revisited the timeline for abstract and paper submissions for the FLOODrisk2020 Conference in view of a its decision to only publish an electronic version of the book of abstracts following the positive experience reported by participants during the 2016 conference.

The new deadline for submission of abstracts is now the 16th September 2019.

This allows not only for more time but also for the abstracts on more current studies.
