Abstract
The International Consortium on Landslides (ICL) was founded on 21 January 2002, during the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization–Kyoto University Joint Symposium on Landslide Risk Mitigation and Protection of Cultural and Natural Heritage, as an activity of IGCP-425. In its first decade, ICL established the first scientific full-color journal Landslides, a new International Programme on Landslides, organized and held the First World Landslide Forum in 2008 and the Second World Landslide Forum in 2011, and recognized 15 World Centres of Excellence on Landslide Risk Reduction. A 10th anniversary conference was held on 17–20 January at the facility in which ICL’s founding meeting had been held. This conference was jointly organized by ICL and ICL-supporting organizations. During the conference, the ICL Strategic Plan 2012–2021: to create a safer geo-environment—was developed and adopted. This strategic plan accompanies this preface.
