Landslide risk management: from hazard to disaster risk reduction

Integrated disaster risk management is crucial in reducing landslide risk. The International Consortium on Landslides has launched several initiatives to enhance research and practice in landslide risk management, including the Tokyo Action Plan 2006, the ISDR-ICL Sendai Partnerships 2015–2025, and the Kyoto Landslide Commitment 2020. This article presents a collection of papers covering various aspects of landslide research and disaster risk management across diverse scales and regions worldwide. To effectively manage landslide disaster risk, it is essential to have a solid understanding of disaster risk and foster a sustained collaboration between science and policy-making to strengthen disaster risk governance. The ICL is dedicated to this mission, and by working together, its members and partners can contribute to the comprehension, reduction, and mitigation of landslide disaster risk globally.
