About the Workshop

CRESCENT's 3rd annual Partnerships & Applications Workshop is designed to explore the challenges and needs of the multi-disciplinary community involved in earthquake hazard study and mitigation in the Pacific Northwest. Workshop discussions in 2024 and 2025 highlighted universal interest in developing scenarios and inter-organizational exercises for preparedness and response as a priority next step.  

Consequently, a deeper consideration of scenarios has been selected as the central theme for the 2026 P&A workshop with specific goals to: 

1. Facilitate community interaction to understand scenario uses and needs  
2. Determine how science can support use cases and needs with existing or future research/scenario development  
3. Plan and design specific outputs to:   

• Support response and interagency clearinghouses  
• Develop strategic partnerships for future coordination and/or scientific research towards resilience  

Application information

We welcome applications from anyone interested in Cascadia earthquake resilience, including researchers, practitioners, educators, policymakers, and representatives of community organizations.
