2. Establishment of a new
International Consortium
on Landslides (ICL)
Characteristics of Landslide and Landslide Research
1. Landslides are triggered by earthquakes, heavy rainfalls
(hurricane and typhoon), volcanic activities or in volcanos, and
man-made activities (construction, mining, irrigation etc.).
2. Most of landslides occur in local and mountainous areas. Small
number of people in communities are killed by each landslide,
but it is seriously dealt.
3. Landslides are studied by many disciplines such as geological,
geomorphological,
geotechnical,
hydro-meteorological,
seismological fields.
4. No international society and network on landslides.
Definition of landslides are different in disciplines and countries.
There is no reliable statistic of landslides (number, volume,
death, economic loss) because of three reasons above.
5. The impact and the significance of landslide research are always
underestimated nationally and internationally.
An international consortium on Landslides (ICL) was
established during the UNESCO-Kyoto University
Joint Symposium in 2002 with participants from
UNESCO, UNISDR, WMO, MOFA &MEXT, Japan.
Members of ICL are from different disciplines, different
countries and different types of organizations (universities,
institutes, governments and local governments, societies, and
private sectors). The statutes and logo were adopted.
The group photo was taken on 23 January 2002.
3. Major efforts of ICL contributing to
ISDR
3.1 Foundation of the world-first full-color journal
“Landslides” since 2004.
3.2 Initiation of an International Programme on
Landslides (IPL)
3.3 Organization of Triennial Flagship Conference
“World Landslide Forum”
3.1 Foundation of the world-first full-color
journal “Landslides” since 2004

Definition of landslides was agreed within a landslide community
during IDNDR 1990-1999. Each member is isolated and weak in
each country. It did not bring practical effect.
 The most important task of ICL is to create an integrated scientific
field “Landslide Science” crossing different disciplines and different
countries using different definition of landslides and terminology.
The initial common information was only full-color landslide photos
from which all landslide dealing persons can draw different
information.
 ICL examined to publish an international quarterly or bimonthly
journal printing full-color landslide photos. Neither contribution fee,
nor full-color printing fee should not be taken from authors to
promote authors from developing countries and young scientists.



ICL succeeded to found the world-first full-color academic
journal “Landslides: Journal of International Consortium on
Landslides”.
In addition to full-color photos, Landslides have four
categories: Recent landslides, Technical notes (case studies)
and ICL-IPL activities as well as Original articles to promote
contribution from developing countries. Recent landslide
reports and case studies from developing countries have
originality since those are not accepted and published in
ordinal scientific journal. ICL-IPL activities to reduce
landslide disaster risk are important in ICL-IPL networks.
Those three categories are easier to be published comparing to
original papers.
Researchers from developing countries have higher possibility
to publish their efforts in a high impact international journal
Landslides (2013 Impact factor is 2.814).
ICL founded the full-color Journal Landslides since 2004.
ICL published the full-color books with the same concept at each WLF.
Landslides: Journal of International Consortium on Landslides.
6 issues/year, 200 pages/issue, Full color, 2013 Impact factor: 2.814
WLF1 2008 : Landslide Disaster Risk Reduction. Vol.1, 667 pages
WLF2 2011 ： Landslide Science and Practice. Vol.1-7, 3,762 pages
WLF3 2014 : Landslide Science for a Safer Geoenvironment, Vol.1-3, 2,144 pages

3.2 Initiation of an International
Programme on Landslides (IPL)



ICL has initiated a new programme, the International Programme
on Landslides (IPL) following the 2006 Tokyo Action Plan.
The Plan is a result of Letter of Intent to strengthen research and
learning on ‘Earth system risk analysis and sustainable disaster
management’ with the framework of UNISDR which was
adopted in the thematic session 3.8 on floods and landslides in
the second WCDR 2005.
It is managed by the IPL Global Promotion Committee (IPLGPC) including each representative of all ICL members and each
representative of ICL supporting organizations (UNESCO,
WMO, FAO, UNISDR, UNU, ICSU, WFEO and IUGS). The
programme includes IPL projects and the World Centres of
Excellence on Landslide Risk Reduction (WCoEs).




Currently 34 IPL projects are on-going. The World Centres of
Excellence on Landslide Risk Reduction are proposed for
three year term. The application is evaluated by the Technical
Evaluation Committee and the Independent Panel of Experts,
then identified at each World Landslide Forum.
At WLF3 in Beijing, 2014, “IPL Awards for Success” were
given to University of Nigeria and North-East Forestry
University, China, and fifteen WCoEs were identified
including Indonesia, Nigeria, Sri Lanka, Thailand etc.
The recognition of IPL projects and WCoEs promoted those
leaders and contributed to fund raising for member institutions
in each country.
Now landslide researchers are neither isolated, nor very weak
with the international network and authorization of ICL-IPL.
Identification of World Centre of Excellence (WCoE) 2014-2017
IPL-Global Promotion Committee (member from ICL, UNESCO, WMO, FAO, UNU, ICSU, WFEO,
IUGS: Chair: Salvano Briceno) has decided through 1) Examination of Eligibility by the Secretariat,
2) Technical Evaluation by 10 experts, 3) Recommendation by the Independent Panel of Experts（5
from ICL supporting organizations: Chair Hans van Ginkel)
Certificates were awarded from UNESCO DG Irina Bokova to
15 leaders of WCOE 2014-2017

IPL Award for Success
This Award is NOT award for the best IPL Project. It is given for the
leaders of success projects within the given circumstances. Two awards
(certificate and 3000 USD) were given to University of Nigeria and
North-East Forestry University, China.
3.3 Organization of Triennial Conference
“World Landslide Forum”





The World Landslide Forum is a triennial flagship conference aimed
at gathering scientists, stakeholders, policy makers and private
sectors dealing with the management of landslide risk.
The results of WLF2 in 2011 and WLF3 in 2014 were published as
full-color books; “Landslide Science and Practice” (3,762 pages)
and “Landslide Science for a Safer Geoenvironment” (2,144 pages).
ICL adopted 2014 Beijing Declaration based on the high level panel
discussion at WLF3. It proposed ICL-IPL Partnership
ICL plans to adopt ICL-IPL Partnership 2015-2025 during WCDRR
in Sendai in 2015.
WLF is a powerful tool to gather scientists, stakeholders, policy
makers and private sectors dealing with the management of
landslide risk.

High-Level Panel Discussion:
Initiative to create a safer geoenvironment toward WCDR2015 and forward
High-level panel was chaired by Hans van Ginkel.
UNESCO, UNISDR, WMO, ICSU/IRDR, China Geological Survey, ICL together from
floor discussed.
The 2014 Beijing Declaration “Landslide Risk Mitigation : Toward a Safer
Geoenvironment” was adopted in the round table discussion on 6 June 2014 following
this panel discussion.
531 people, 211 national and international organizations from 40 countries and 5
organizations of United Nations System participated WLF3.
Adoption of the Sendai Partnerships and
its milestone meetings for Reviews
The 2015 ICL-IPL Sendai Partnership Conference was organized on 11-15 March
2015 and ICL took a role in a working session “Reducing underlying risk factors”
within WCDRR.
ICL-IPL Sendai Partnerships 2015-2025 was adopted to promote post 2015
framework for Disaster Risk Reduction as Voluntary Comittement to the WCDRR
2015. The progress of activities will be reported at the biannual Global Platform.
ICL and its partners will organize WLF4 and WLF5 as milestone meetings for that.
All United Nations’, international/national, research/educational organizations and
NGOs are invited to join this initiative within their own mandates and capacities.
4th World Landslide Forum: May 29-June 2 in 2017
at Exhibition and Convention Centre, Ljubjana, Slovenia
5th World Landslide Forum: September 21-25 in 2020
at TOKI MESSE in Niigata, Japan.
The ICL endeavour through IPL project, World Centres of Excellence, World
Landslide Forum as well as full-color journal Landslides are sure to contribute to
the post-2015 Framework for Shaping the Future for safer communities.
