Equality, diversity and inclusivity

The Global Volcano Risk Alliance recognises that volcanic hazards affect diverse communities worldwide, and effective risk reduction requires inclusive participation from all voices. We are committed to fostering an environment where individuals from all backgrounds - regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, age, disability, or socioeconomic status - can contribute to and benefit from our work. 

We actively seek to engage with underrepresented communities most vulnerable to volcanic risk, ensuring their knowledge and perspectives shape our strategies. By promoting diversity within our networks and championing equitable access to resources, training, and decision-making processes, we strive to build a more resilient world where everyone has the opportunity to protect themselves and their communities from volcanic hazards.
