MULTI-TRUST aims to deliver actionable insights and practical solutions with significant impact to facilitate the following goals:
Minimising the probability of failure under multiple extreme events (protect human life & reduce losses);
Reducing the environmental impact of multi-hazard events (sustainability & greenhouse emissions);
Effective allocation of monetary resources considering the life span of the system ( life-cycle cost);
Better understanding of the uncertainties involved, enabling decision-making tools developed explicitly for multi-hazard scenario analysis (informed decision-making & emergency management).
