DESCRIPTION:The area of Italy at risk for landslides\, as defined in the H
 ydrogeological Planning (PAI)\, has increased by 15%\, from 55\,400 km² i
 n 2021 to 69\,500 km² in 2024\, equal to 23% of the national territory. T
 he most significant increases were recorded in the Autonomous Province of 
 Bolzano (+61.2%)\, Tuscany (+52.8%)\, Sardinia (+29.4%)\, and Sicily (+20.
 2%) and are primarily due to more detailed studies conducted by the distri
 ct basin authorities and the autonomous provinces. The areas classified as
  highly at risk (high P3 and very high P4) have increased from 8.7% to 9.5
 % of the national territory. In 2024\, 94.5% of Italian municipalities are
  at risk of landslides\, floods\, coastal erosion\, or avalanches.   The s
 ituation on Italian beaches is improving: in terms of coastal erosion\, th
 ere are more advancing stretches (+30 km) than eroding ones.   This is the
  picture that emerges from the fourth  ISPRA Report on "Hydrogeological In
 stability in Italy"  - 2024 Edition - the Institute's three-year work pres
 ented this morning in Rome at the Multipurpose Hall of the Presidency of t
 he Council of Ministers.   "A thorough understanding of landslide phenomen
 a is the essential foundation for effective risk prevention and mitigation
  policies\, but so is communication and information dissemination\," state
 d ISPRA President Stefano Laporta. "Hydrogeological instability is not jus
 t a technical or structural issue\; it affects the daily lives of each of 
 us\, the safety of our communities\, and the prospect of a resilient envir
 onment. Active citizen involvement is essential\; their contribution is in
 valuable on multiple fronts\, from collecting timely reports from the loca
 l area to supporting the dissemination of information and participating in
  local emergency plans."   "The ISPRA report shows that 19.2% of the natio
 nal territory is classified as being at greatest risk for landslides and f
 loods\, and Italy remains among the most exposed European countries in ter
 ms of landslides\, with over 636\,000 recorded landslides\," stated ISPRA 
 Director General Maria Siclari. "Indicators and maps on hydrogeological in
 stability are taking on an increasingly important role also in the field o
 f sustainable finance\, assessment and management of physical and financia
 l risks associated with the economic impact of extreme natural events\," e
 xplained the Director General. "ISPRA data on hydrogeological instability 
 are a fundamental tool to support public policies and strategic plannig".
