In the heart of Bologna, an unmissable event for all those involved in territorial security and risk management will be held on April 15, 2025 : the second stage of the SAIE LAB, SAIE's Traveling Laboratories. Titled " Hydrogeological Instability: Prevention Strategies and Countermeasures ," the conference aims to address, in an in-depth and multidisciplinary manner, one of the most pressing challenges of our time.

Hydrogeological instability is a phenomenon that, due to increasing climate variability, uncontrolled urbanization, and changes in hydrogeomorphological balances, requires an integrated and innovative approach. During this event, industry experts—including businesses, designers, engineers, geologists, surveyors, and architects—will meet with leading institutions and companies to discuss and present cutting-edge solutions aimed at reducing the vulnerability of our at-risk areas.

Program Rich in Technical Insights

The event's agenda is designed to offer a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of critical issues in territorial security. The conference, moderated by Andrea Dari, Director of Ingenio, will be divided into several sessions:

• Institutional Greetings and Data Presentation
  The event will open with institutional greetings followed by a presentation of data from the SAIE Observatory, in collaboration with NOMISMA, which will illustrate the current state of the region and future challenges.

• Key Lectures: Between Emergency and Prevention
  A series of keynote speeches will address key issues such as:

  • Emergency management and risk scenarios, with a critical reflection on the concept of "return periods."
  • Urban planning and strategies to promote territorial resilience.
  • Slope stabilization techniques and landslide mitigation methodologies.
  • The challenges of hydraulics in the management of watercourses, both urban and mountainous.
  • An in-depth look at geotechnical dynamics to ensure soil stability.
  • Integrating digitalization into territorial planning is essential for timely and effective interventions.

• Round Table: Innovation and Technological Solutions
  The day will conclude with a roundtable discussion where companies and professionals will present the latest innovations and technologies applicable to homeland security, sparking a constructive and stimulating dialogue for the future.

• Networking and Aperitif
  After an intense day of discussions and discussions, participants will have the opportunity to strengthen contacts and exchange ideas during the networking aperitif.
