GTM aims to establish a global tsunami community and consolidate a competence centre for tsunami hazard and risk. This will be achieved through the establishment of curated pools of experts, a commitment to training the next generation of experts, and the promotion of state-of-the-art scientific developments.
GTM will provide services and products related to tsunami hazard and risk, develop reference models and maps, improve and develop analysis methods, tools and good practices with a focus on probabilistic methods. GTM members will collaborate with users of tsunami hazard and risk products to ensure relevance and proper dissemination of results with the objective of communicating uncertainty transparently. GTM’s contribution to risk management, reduction and education will be in line with the SFDRR 2015-2030 and SDGs. GTM will contribute to multi-hazard and risk assessment through high-level harmonisation through interaction with organisations covering other natural hazards
