The purpose of the meeting was to disseminate information about the project, to receive feedback on the work of the project and to identify new research opportunities and collaborations. After the conference opening by Prof. Banchong Mahaisavariya, President of Mahidol University, Prof Moses and Associate Prof Dr Kanchana Nakhapakorn presented an overview of the project followed by individual presentations by each of the project Work Package (WP) Leaders:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>WP1<\/strong>, Baseline assessment of hydro-meteorological boundary conditions, Dr Raymond Ward, University of Brighton, UK;<\/li>\n<li><strong>WP 2<\/strong>, Scenario modelling and hazard assessment, Dr Yi Wang, University of Sussex, UK;<\/li>\n<li><strong>WP 3<\/strong>, Socio-economic impact
