Abstract
The TRIQUETRA project aims at creating an evidence-based assessment platform that allows precise risk stratification, and also creates a database of available mitigation measures and strategies, acting as a Decision Support Tool towards efficient risk mitigation and site remediation.

The overall approach of Triquetra is based on three distinct steps:
1. Risk Identification
2. Risk Quantification
3. Risk Mitigation

This “trifecta” approach (hence the name Triquetra) creates a framework of risk assessment and risk mitigation so as to tackle as many of these risks as possible, in the most efficient way available.

A total of 21 organizations from 7 countries participate in the project, including 8 Universities and Research Organizations and 6 Cultural Heritage Authorities. The project started on 01/01/2023 and will last for 3 years.
