Welcome | Bienvenue | Pjila'si

ISCRAM 2025: 
Managing and Responding to Coastal Disasters & Climate Change 

The International Conference on Information Systems for Crisis Response and Management (ISCRAM) is a premier global forum for professionals and academics focused on developing and applying innovative information systems for crisis management. ISCRAM facilitates the exchange of cutting-edge research, best practices, and real-world experiences, making it an essential event for those committed to improving crisis response and resilience.

​

Theme:

The theme of the ISCRAM 2025 conference is “Managing and Responding to Coastal Disasters and Climate Change”. Coastal communities are particularly vulnerable to various natural pressures associated with the ocean and atmosphere, whether slow-acting, such as erosion or salt-water intrusion, or precipitous, such as hurricanes or storm surges. Innumerable studies and policies focus on community adaptation and improved resilience, but some hazards inevitably overwhelm the social system, requiring emergency response. Some of these natural phenomena are exacerbated by climate change, which can affect the frequency and/or the severity of adverse events.
