In 2008, AFPCN (Association française pour la prévention des catastrophes naturelles), which functions as IRDR National Committee for France, established a Working Group that studied the vulnerability of networks in the face of natural hazards. A report was published that brought together evidence and analyses presented during the lifetime of the first cycle of the Working group’s activities (see: rapport de synthèse « Vulnérabilité des réseaux et catastrophes naturelles » available in French). The report also includes a comprehensive bibliography. The Working Group will hold a meeting to review lessons learned in October 2015.
