Effective stakeholder engagement is a cornerstone of successful risk communication. This splinter meeting will focus on innovative methods for involving stakeholders in disaster risk management, including interactive games, science-policy interfaces, and other (creative) participatory practices. Participants will explore various approaches for engaging diverse audiences, enhancing their understanding of risk information, and highlighting different co-creation and knowledge co-production processes. The meeting will provide a platform for sharing experiences and strategies for designing and implementing stakeholder engagement activities that promote mutual feedback and transdisciplinary collaboration. Contributing to the European Commission’s disaster resilience goal no. 2 on ‘Prepare - Increasing risk awareness and preparedness of the population’ and the preparEU programme, this session aims to foster creative solutions and strengthen stakeholder relationships in the context of disaster risk reduction. Attendees are encouraged to participate in the scientific session and short course, which together with this meeting form a unified path for a deeper exploration of risk communication and engagement strategies.
