We are pleased to announce the launch of the STARS4Water Impact Reporter, which was held during our all partners and stakeholders meeting on the 25th of September, in Drammen, Norway. The Impact Reporter is an online open-access application designed to disseminate and share insights on the impacts of historic flood, drought, storm, and heatwave events. The Impact Reporter provides a comprehensive platform to report biophysical, social and cultural, economic, and health-related impacts of past events, fostering knowledge exchange among stakeholders. Additionally, the application highlights applied mitigation and adaptation measures, enabling communities and decision-makers to learn from past experiences. This information is crucial and currently lacking at a harmonised and easily accessible format.
By consolidating critical data and facilitating collaboration, the Impact Reporter supports vulnerability and risk analysis, empowering stakeholders to make informed decisions and enhance resilience in planning for future climatic challenges. Its added value lies in bridging the knowledge gap and making impact data accessible, which can in turn inform actionable strategies for risk reduction and sustainable adaptation.
The Impact Reporter is open-access when it comes to viewing the recorded events and related information. The reporting on a new event requires a registration and access is provided by the project for screened users. We welcome contributions from river basin stakeholders across Europe so that we enrich the information available on the Impact Reporter.
