an introduction
• De l’assureur… Depuis sa création, la MAIF revendique une éthique humaniste et une volonté de faire évoluer le métier de l’assurance. Ainsi, elle n’a pas hésité à modifier ses contrats d’assurance ou encore à élargir son champ de recrutement à tous les métiers de l’éducation, de la recherche, de la culture et des loisirs.
• A la Fondation… La Fondation MAIF, créée en 1989, scelle le professionnalisme et l’expérience de l’assureur en investissant, en amont, trois stades complémentaires de l’assurance : – d’une part, la prévention et la formation via des outils pratiques de
communication (Livrets, guides pratiques, CD-ROM, Vidéos…) ; – d’autre part, la recherche scientifique qui analyse précisément les
mécanismes de survenance des accidents, qu’ils soient d’origine humaine, technique ou matérielle
An exemplative educational product:Carte de sismicité euro méditerranéenne
An exemplative research project:use of social networks to monitor sismic impacts
An exemplative research project: to develop storm surge damage functions on dwellings, with access to insurance companies’ claims data files
Concluding remarks

capacity building to collective risk governance (social sciences, interdisciplinary approaches)
Supporting decision making methods and tools Improving insurability of natural hazard classes, according frequency and
to country’s risk profile (flood, earthquake)Fair, accessible and affordable coverage…
DRM is a cross cutting issue inviting EU Foundations, Cities and Regions to cooperate, for efficient Social Innovation
