For the second consecutive year, a field workshop was held last week at the Institute of Mechanics of Natural Hazards at the Ionian University’s PAKEK in Lixouri, Kefalonia.
The workshop, titled “Natural Hazards & Early Warning Systems: A Hands-On Field Workshop in Kefalonia,” was attended by students from Western Connecticut State University (WCSU).
During the collaboration, WCSU students and faculty visited the Institute’s facilities, were briefed on the Institute’s activities and research areas, and additionally had the opportunity to study and receive training on the wired natural hazard management infrastructure that has been developed and installed in the field at critical locations in Kefalonia .
The educational visit by Western Connecticut State University was supported by the Region of the Ionian Islands and the Municipality of Lixouri.
