Global Science & Innovation Volunteer – Titan Taskforce to End Disasters

The World Disaster Center (WDC) is assembling a historic global Titan Taskforce of the world’s most brilliant scientists, researchers, engineers, analysts, strategists, and visionaries to achieve one of humanity’s boldest missions:

To end the impact of disasters — permanently.

We are actively recruiting volunteers, fellows, and global problem-solvers across 85 powerful scientific domains to lead the charge in building the most advanced disaster prediction, prevention, and response system ever created.

This is not ordinary volunteering.

This is a global call to Titans — individuals ready to use their expertise to shape the future of disaster science, save lives, and lead a new era of planetary resilience.

🚨 Why We’re Hiring:

Disasters are not just environmental — they are system failures. They impact health, security, economics, governance, and human dignity. Yet today, science is fragmented, and solutions are reactive.

WDC is pioneering a fully integrated disaster-ending ecosystem — from AI-powered early warning to resilient infrastructure, insurance systems, and governance transformation. To do this, we need the world’s best minds, united with purpose.
