Great success for the workshop “EARTHQUAKE INDUCED LIQUEFACTION RISK: HOLISTIC ASSESSMENT AND MITIGATION” held during the 16th European Conference on Earthquake Engineering in Thessaloniki last 20 of June, aimed to comprehensively discuss the approaches for the assessment and mitigation of liquefaction risk, as well as the strategies to determine its impact to the community.

Workshop and presentations have stirred up the interest of a large number of experts, research scientists, risk managers and delegates from Institutions present at the event.

Thanks to LiquefACT partners Giuseppe Modoni (University of Cassino and Southern Lazio), Carlo G. Lai (University of Pavia), Alessandro Flora and Marco di Ludovico (University of Naples Federico II) and Maxim Millen and Xavier Romão (University of Porto) for their presence and efforts.
