Key outputs of the ANDROID network are being presented at the Third United Nations World Conference on Disaster Risk Reduction, that will be held from 14 to 18 March 2015 in Sendai City, Miyagi Prefecture, Japan and accordingly, this issue describes some of the key events and activities where the ANDROID network will be represented. The issue also includes an update on the publication of the ANDROID educational roadmap, the launch of the ANDROID open educational platform, and a major ANDROID symposium held in Latvia that provided a public dissemination and scientific forum, with its main aim to increase the awareness for researchers in the Baltic regions of enhancing resilience on a multidisciplinary perspective.
