The annual European Safety and Reliability Conference (ESREL) is an international conference under the auspices of the European Safety and Reliability Association (ESRA). The 33rd European Safety and Reliability Conference (ESREL 2023) will be held in Southampton, United Kingdom from the 3rd of September - 8th of September 2023.

ESREL is the key annual event for meetings and knowledge exchange in the area of risk assessment, risk management and optimization of the performance of socio-technological systems in Europe, and among the most important internationally. It is not only a place of scientific excellence but also an occasion for our community of safety and reliability specialists to meet in a spirit of conviviality in the broadest sense.

This year the conference will have a special focus on: “The Future of Safety in a Reconnected World”.

This reflects our ambition to explore how risk, reliability and safety methodologies can help society address the new challenges of the post Covid era and as new technologies proliferate. The conference will present technical and scientific papers covering methods and applications in the fields of risk, safety and reliability. The city of Southampton has long been at the centre of global connectivity, with its rich maritime history. Both the Mayflower and centuries later the Titanic left Southampton dock, to meet very different fates, with the former signifying the irrepressible spirit of hope and the latter signifying hubris and disaster. Both of these voyages offer lessons in the interplay of human and technological factors, both in optimising safety and reliability and in determining what risks should be taken in the first place.

We look forward to welcoming you to Southampton to discuss the latest developments in safety and reliability in a rapidly reconnecting world.

You can find Guidelines for paper submission below.
