This systematic review examines innovative strategies for capacity building in sustainable disaster risk management (DRM). A of 63 peer-reviewed articles, published between 2010 and 2024, was conducted using Scopus. The articles were analyzed to identify key themes related technological innovations, community initiatives, interdisciplinary approaches. Findings show that advancements machine learning, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), Communication Technologies (ICT) significantly enhance DRM, particularly assessment, early warning systems, response. Policy frameworks institutional support identified as critical scaling sustaining capacity-building programs. Community engagement, leveraging local knowledge, also vital ensuring the relevance sustainability these efforts. Interdisciplinary collaboration across government, NGOs, private sector further improved effectiveness strategies. study concludes efforts contribute better preparedness, increased resilience, development. framework offers valuable insights policymakers practitioners looking implement scale improve global resilience.

Abstract When multiple weather‐driven hazards such as heatwaves, droughts, storms or floods occur simultaneously consecutively, their impacts on society and the environment can compound. Despite recent advances in compound event research, risk assessments by practitioners policymakers remain predominantly single‐hazard focused. This is largely due to traditional siloed approaches that assess manage natural hazards. Hence, there a need adopt more ‘multi‐hazard approach’ managing events practice. paper summarizes discussions from 2‐day workshop, held Glasgow January 2023, which brought together scientists, to: (1) exchange shared understanding of concepts multi‐hazard events; (2) learn examples science–policy–practice integration both single hazard domains; (3) explore how success stories could be used improve management risks. Key themes discussed during workshop included developing common language, promoting knowledge co‐production, fostering integration, addressing complexity, utilising case studies for improved communication centralising information informed tools frameworks. By bringing experts science, policy practice, this has highlighted ways quantify risks synergistically incorporate them into practice enhance management.

Natural hazards disrupt livelihoods and cause significant economic damage globally, disproportionately burdening vulnerable marginalized populations. Adaptation efforts must become more equitable to better distribute risk among socio-economic groups, ensure inclusive representation in decision-making, address root causes of vulnerability. While there are similarities across hazard types achieving adaptation, attention their differences is essential, as each type poses distinct adaptation challenges. Additionally, compound consecutive events complicated by potential maladaptation trade-offs, further pressuring the most vulnerable. This study provides a multi-hazard perspective on various events. We identify challenges for based magnitude (intensive vs. extensive), onset (rapid slow), To advance multi-hazards, we recommend that (1) analyses specific type, (2) scaled up extensive events, such nuisance flooding, due cumulative impact (3) research advances toward thinking prevent trade-offs. support equitable, multi-risk decisions, methods integratively capture complexities social environmental systems, especially regarding compounding paper highlights recent advancements qualitative quantitative methods, well decision-making approaches, tackle socio-environmental complexities.
