The International Center for Environmental Monitoring CIMA Research Foundation is a non-profit research organization. It aims to promote the study, scientific research, technological development and advanced training in engineering and environmental sciences for the protection of public health, civil protection and ecosystems.
The scientific research conducted by the Foundation focuses on disaster risk mitigation. Since its inception, CIMA Research Foundation has been dedicated to hydrometeorological risk mitigation, developing mathematical models to improve the forecasting and prevention of flood phenomena, and wildfire forecasting and prevention. Over the years, its areas of research have expanded to include wildfire forest biodiversity conservation, satellite data analysis, risk assessment and damage data analysis. A line of research is also dedicated to regulatory review activities (including complex national and foreign institutional architectures), legal compliance, legal risk analysis in risk management and forensic investigation.
However, the Foundation's activities are not limited to research. Our technicians and researchers contribute to the dissemination of knowledge through training, and to technological development thanks to ACROTEC Foundation, in house technological body of CIMA Research Foundation.
CIMA Foundation is specialized in assisting stakeholders in the fields of disaster risk reduction, civil protection and preservation of terrestrial and water-related ecosystems with technologies capacity development and assistance to the end users.
CIMA Foundation's researchers have a long record in defining procedures and models to assess flood risk. Through its unique global track record in user support for flood-related issues, it has been able to build a significant expertise and network bridging local users with regional, national and international stakeholders. CIMA Foundation is also in the steering committee of the Global Flood Partnership and of the Risk Nexus Initiative.
