More than 120 students took part in an exercise conceived by the firefighters

At the start of IMREDD’s academic year, on 14th September, more than 120 students from 9 IMREDD programmes (BHPE, EME, MQM, COMEDD, JRDD, GEOPRAD, CRES, GEDD and Engineers for Smart Cities) and The Sustainable Design School participated in the IMPACT module, designed by the Firefighters of the Alpes-Maritimes department to increase risk awareness and crisis management competencies.

The IMPACT module is a part of this year's IMREDD workshops, our transdisciplinary workshops. It involves confronting students from 8 different subject areas (law, communications, environmental management, geography, energy, materials, design, urban planning) with the risks in their territory, in order to assess the impact of climate change by 2050 in the Alpes-Maritimes department.
