Abstract

The International Consortium on Landslides (ICL) was founded at the UNESCO-Kyoto University joint Symposium in January 2002. The ICL also decided to create the International Programme on Landslide (IPL) and a new international journal Landslides in the foundation meeting in 2002. The ICL was registered as a legal body under Japanese law in 2002 as a non-profit scientific organization. The ICL proposed the 2006 Tokyo Action Plan and exchanged a MoU to each of seven global stakeholders (ICL Supporting Organizations, ISO). Together with ISO, the ICL founded the triennial World Landslide Forum (WLF) in 2008, and in 2015 proposed the Sendai Landslide Partnerships 2015–2025. Based on partnerships, ICL and ISO are organizing the Fifth World Landslide Forum (WLF5) and will launch the Kyoto 2020 Commitment for Global Promotion of Understanding and Reducing Landslide Disaster Risk (KLC2020) on 5 November 2020.KeywordsSendai landslide partnerships (SLP)Kyoto landslide commitment (KLC)International programme on landsides (IPL)
