Abstract
Within the Centre for Disaster Resilience (CDR) at the Faculty of Geo-Information Science and Earth Observation (ITC) of the University of Twente (Netherlands), we carry out MSc and PhD research with students from all over the world. This paper presents a summary of recent research results from a range of MSc students from different countries (India, Pakistan, Nepal, Colombia, and Indonesia) on various research topics related to landslide inventory mapping, susceptibility mapping, landslide hazard assessment, Landslide Early Warning and multi-hazard risk assessment. Within the CDR we have established a research group on landslides that covers a range of topics. We also link research with training and international projects. Students are supported to carry out fieldwork in areas with many landslide problems. In this overview paper, we show examples from Nepal, India, Japan, Taiwan, Vietnam, Colombia, and Norway. This paper presents examples from MSc students, many of which have obtained PhD research positions in other Universities, with whom we collaborate on international projects.
