#**ESIP Evaluation:  Bernuth and Williamson (B&W) held 2 telecons on organizational capacity diagnostics with the staff, Erin, Foundation for Earth Science Board members (Karl, Bill) and ESIP C&B chair, Ken, and me to perform an organizational capacity diagnostic on ESIP. The [[media:ESIPCapacityDiagnostic.doc| agenda is here]] and conversations covered ESIP aspirations and strategy, current organization structure and skills, business model and processes in place. The discussion is one part of the research that will allow us to start a straw-person governance framework in preparation for the upcoming pre-ESIP meeting workshop in which we will review evaluation results and work towards a consolidated ESIP/Foundation structure.

#**[https://understandrisk.org/event/ur2016/ Understanding Risk (UR) Forum 2016]: I attended the fourth global forum of the UR Community held in May in Venice Italy. UR is a global community of practitioners interested in the field of disaster risk assessment and communication, largely targeting the development countries/regions. Many good presentations were given along with discussions on how to deal with risk in various aspects ( technological, scientific, political and social). The UR community shares some of the same key challenges we are facing (e.g., diverse data source, users, etc). There are synergies between us. I plan to follow up with contacts that might lead to future collaboration opportunities.
