The occurrence of natural and man-made hazards usually leads to the emergenceof consequences that affect the living environment. Risk assessment as a processhelps to comprehend risk. A risk assessment based on complex semi-qualitativeapproach to probability of hazard with specified consequences occurrence makesit possible to designate risk levels. In the Transcarpathian region the assessed risk levels distribution has been visualized on risk maps. Such risk maps as a form of riskcommunication may be used to support resilience strengthening regarding identifiedhazards and its impact on the society, infrastructure and environment. Basedon conducted research, a risk assessment methodology and risk mapping methodologywere proposed. Moreover, the usage of proposed methods was referencedto the resilience strengthening and its influence on the sustainable developmentof the Transcarpathian region. The proposed tool is a solution that is correlatedto 30 innovations linking dedicated Disaster Risk Reduction with SustainableDevelopment Goals.
