Researchers and practitioners in risk prevention consider the growing intersection between international environmental law and disaster law, using environmental law tools to reduce disaster risk, and linking institutional and approaches in the two fields. Their topics include climate change and the narrative of disaster, a capabilities approach to defining climate disaster, disaster risk assessment: an appraisal of European Union environmental law, liability and compensation as instruments of disaster risk reduction, and preventing and responding to Arctic offshore drilling disasters: the role of hybrid cooperation.
