The MANTEL project aims to advance our understanding of how climate extremes impact lakes. The project focuses on using high-frequency data, long-term and multi-site data, and modeling lake stratification to explore the effects of climate extremes on lakes. One of the outcomes of the project is the development of a board game called "Flipping Lakes," designed to educate stakeholders about water management at the catchment-scale. Additionally, it provides policy briefs and research outputs to increase our understanding about the ways certain processes, such as storms, affect lakes.

This paper delves into the resilience of markets during disruptions, with a focus on the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) and its role in this context. By developing a framework to pinpoint market vulnerabilities, it classifies them into causes of fragility and amplifiers of harm. Through various case studies, the paper scrutinizes the influence of competition authorities and governmental policies in bolstering market resilience. While the CMA plays a pivotal role, the paper emphasizes the need for a wider array of policy tools, including trade and regulatory measures, to ensure comprehensive market stability.

The MED-GOLD project aims to co-design, co-develop, test, and assess the added value of proof-of-concept climate services for olive, grape, and durum wheat. It seeks to refine, validate, and upscale the three pilot services with the wider European and global user communities for olive, grape, and durum wheat. It also aims to ensure replicability of MED-GOLD climate services in other crops/climates and to establish links to policy making globally. The project attempts to produce a comprehensive communication and commercialization plan for MED-GOLD climate services to enhance market uptake and build better informed and connected end-user communities for the global olive oil, wine, and pasta food systems and related policy making.

The MED-GOLD project aims to co-design, co-develop, test, and assess proof-of-concept climate services for traditional Mediterranean food systems, specifically focusing on olive, grape, and durum wheat. It seeks to refine, validate, and upscale these pilot services with wider European and global user communities, ensuring replicability in other crops/climates and establishing links to global policy making. The ultimate goal is to provide added value for decision-making processes, enhance market uptake of climate services, and build better informed and connected end-user communities for the global olive oil, wine, and pasta food systems. The project attempts to develop comprehensive climate services and a manual to guide stakeholders and practitioners in utilizing these tools effectively.

The conceptual framework therefore consists of three building blocks, which will be presented in subsequent sections: (1) the various narratives of marine ecosystem restoration, (2) different types of uncertainties related to marine ecosystem restoration and (3) types of governance arrangements.

To gain an explorative and comprehensive look at the problem, we conducted a qualitative analysis through local case studies on innovative housing projects intentionally pursuing integration’s goals. To this aim, we included into our analysis different typologies of housing, based on the new concept of living (intergenerational and or multicultural cohabitation), buildings forms (both the construction of new buildings and the requalification of existing facilities), their location both in city centres and in peripheral areas and dotation in public services (transportation, medical facilities, schools, social assistance, etc.).

The document provides national policy recommendations based on the MiCREATE project's research on the integration of migrant children in Austria, Denmark, Spain, the United Kingdom, Poland, and Slovenia. It addresses various aspects, including child-centered policy recommendations, policy indicators, monitoring, and assessment.

This document, part of the EMpowerment through liquid Integration of Migrant Youth in vulnerable conditions (MIMY) project, presents policy recommendations based on the first-year findings. MIMY investigates the integration processes of non-EU young adult migrants, particularly those aged 18-29, in vulnerable conditions. The recommendations are rooted in a conceptual framework emphasizing 'liquid integration,' resilience, and vulnerability. The document urges policymakers to adopt a dynamic and multifaceted perspective, considering the continuous changes and adjustments in integration processes.

This study examines the role of social policies in European welfare states, focusing on their capacity to manage poverty and inequality during economic shocks. By considering both primary and supplementary social protection systems, the research finds that Nordic and Continental European states with robust support systems fare better, though some inconsistencies exist in labor market integration.

This document, part of the FUTURELIENCE project, focuses on Task 2.2, aiming to collect and discuss indicators for farm efficiency and resilience. The handbook, compiled through an iterative process, provides a list of qualitative and quantitative indicators covering soil, crop, livestock, environmental impacts, economics, social aspects, and more. The indicators aim to measure integration within farming systems. The document outlines the process, contributors, and considerations for indicator selection.

This policy paper analyzes how public sector organizations in 11 EU Member States responded and adapted to the COVID-19 crisis. It evaluates their resilience using the Common Assessment Framework (CAF) model, a tool for assessing organizational operations and performance.

The Flexible Social Services Model enables social and healthcare services to be provided according to actual needs and usage patterns, rather than being restricted by official registered residence. By shifting from a residence-based to a needs-based framework, the model ensures that services are available where people actually live, work, or spend time. The solution strengthens inclusion, increases fairness, and responds to changing demographics and mobility trends. 

Multilocal living — where individuals maintain more than one residence (e.g., a main home in Tartu and a secondary home in rural municipalities) — has become increasingly common in Estonia and across Europe. However, the current income tax system allocates municipal tax revenues solely on the basis of registered permanent residence, ignoring the fact that multilocal residents use services and infrastructure in multiple municipalities. This policy solution introduces a mechanism to proportionally distribute personal income tax between municipalities according to multilocal residents’ actual usage of services and residence patterns. 

The solution integrates public transport systems with sharing economy platforms (e.g., ride-sharing, bike and scooter rentals, car-pooling, and on-demand shuttles) to provide more flexible, sustainable, and accessible mobility options. This measure responds to the challenges of multilocal living, where residents often move between urban and rural municipalities and require seamless, multimodal travel opportunities. The concept can be adapted wherever transport systems and shared platforms coexist. 

The MultiMind project aims to develop the MuLiMi platform, a screening assessment tool for language and reading disorders in bilingual children. The platform, designed by a multidisciplinary team, is intended to identify potential language and reading disorders in preschool and school-age children. Its outcome is a user-friendly interface that incorporates multimedia elements to create an engaging experience for young examinees, while also providing administrators with the ability to create, modify, and configure tests. This innovative tool is expected to contribute to the early identification and intervention of language and reading disorders in multilingual children.

The MUV project aims at engaging local communities in the co-design of new mobility solutions for their neighborhoods. By analyzing data collected from app users' routes, the project identifies areas in need of intervention and invites citizens, local organizations, and decision-makers to propose solutions. The project's purpose is to foster a collaborative approach to urban mobility and to provide evidence-based recommendations to local administrators for the improvement of city mobility policies. The project attempts to provide a series of recommendations for new mobility solutions to be implemented in each neighborhood, as well as efforts to contribute to the debate on mobility policies, particularly in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.

State-of-the-art flood hazard maps in coastal cities are often obtained from simulating coastal or pluvial events separately. This method does not account for the seasonality of flood drivers and their mutual dependence. In this article, we include the impact of these two factors in a computationally efficient probabilistic framework for flood risk calculation, using Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) as a case study. HCMC can be flooded subannually by high tide, rainfall, and storm surge events or a combination thereof during the monsoon or tropical cyclones. Using long gauge observations, we stochastically model 10,000 years of rainfall and sea level events based on their monthly distributions, dependence structure and cooccurrence rate. The impact from each stochastic event is then obtained from a damage function built from selected rainfall and sea level combinations, leading to an expected annual damage (EAD) of $1.02 B (95th annual damage percentile of $2.15 B). We find no dependence for most months and large differences in expected damage across months ($36–166 M) driven by the seasonality of rainfall and sea levels. Excluding monthly variability leads to a serious underestimation of the EAD by 72–83%. This is because high-probability flood events, which can happen multiple times during the year and are properly captured by our framework, contribute the most to the EAD. This application illustrates the potential of our framework and advocates for the inclusion of flood drivers' dynamics in coastal risk assessments.

The increased complexity of disaster risk, due to climate change, expected population growth and the increasing interconnectedness of disaster impacts across communities and economic sectors, requires disaster risk reduction (DRR) measures that are better able to address these growing complexities. Especially disaster risk management (DRM) practitioners need to be able to oversee these complexities. Nonetheless, in the traditional risk paradigm, there is a strong focus on single hazards and the risk faced by individual communities and economic sectors. The development of the game and how it aims to support a shift from a single-risk to a multi-risk paradigm are discussed in detail. Breaking the Silos is a serious game designed to support various stakeholders (including policy makers, risk managers, researchers) in understanding and managing the complexities of DRR measures in a multi-risk (multi-hazard) setting, thereby moving away from hazard-silo thinking. What sets Breaking the Silos apart from other disaster risk games is its explicit focus on multi-risk challenges. The game includes different hazard types and intensities (and their interactions), different impact indicators, and (a) synergies between DRR measures. Moreover, the spread of expert knowledge between different participants and the high levels of freedom and randomness in the game design contribute to a realistic game. The game was launched during the World Bank GFDRR's Understanding Risk 2020 Forum and later played again with the same settings with researchers from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) in Zurich. Feedback from the pre- and post-game surveys indicates that Breaking the Silos was found useful by the participants in increasing awareness of the complexities of risk.

The aim of this report was to (i) acknowledge the differences and promote consistency in understanding across subsequent work packages in the
MYRIAD-EU project, (ii) improve the accessibility of our work to a broad array of stakeholders, and (iii) strengthen consensus across the hazard and risk community through a common understanding of multi-hazard, multi-risk terminology and concepts. The work encompassed a mixed-methods approach, including internal consultations and data-generating exercises; literature reviews; external stakeholder engagement, adopting and building on a rich existing body of established glossaries.
