How do we make sure that GEM is developed and supported by a global community, what are the tools that we can use to support development, what features should GEM eventually have to meet user needs and what are the benefits of open-source development?
These and more questions were brought up and discussed during the interactive Calculating & Communicating Earthquake Risk session, held on June 4th 2010 at the World Bank in Washington DC. Over 200 professionals, scientists and stakeholders participated in the session, which was part of GEM's Outreach Meeting.
