DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Prof. Anamika Barua (IIT Guwahati)\, Prof. Pijush Kum
 at Dutta (Azim Premji University)\, Prof. Rathin Barman (Wildlife Trust of
  India)\, Prof. Sumit Sen (IIT Roorkee)\n\nAssam\, characterized by its in
 tricate network of rivers\, is prone to annual flooding that leads to exte
 nsive damage to lives\, property\, and the environment. Leveraging Earth O
 bservation (EO) insights is crucial to mitigate these challenges. The work
 shop will bridge the gap between EO technology and practical applications 
 in the context of Assam&#39;s unique riverine ecosystem.\n\nThis workshop welc
 omes researchers\, policymakers\, environmentalists\, and practitioners en
 gaged in flood management and ecosystem preservation in Assam. Participant
 s will gain practical knowledge and skills to harness EO data effectively 
 for flood-prone riverine ecosystem management. They will be better equippe
 d to contribute to sustainable practices\, disaster resilience\, and infor
 med decision-making in Assam&#39;s unique context.\n\nThrough this workshop\, 
 we aspire to empower stakeholders to make informed decisions\, enhance the
  resilience of riverine ecosystems\, and ultimately reduce the impact of a
 nnual floods on the people and environment of Assam.\n\nVirtual: https://e
