The IAVCEI Collapse Calderas Commission (CCC; http://www.gvb-csic.es/CCC.htm) was created in 2008 to have a wider and deeper understanding on calderas. It includes caldera geology, geodesy and geophysics, modelling, magma chamber processes, volcanic hazard and risk management, economic benefits and environmental research. CCC promotes interdisciplinary interaction to help solve the many questions regarding the formation, evolution and affect on society of collapse calderas. Previous meetings were held at Tenerife, Canarias, (2005), Mexican Volcanic Belt (2008) and Reunion (2010). Venue The 4th Workshop on Collapse Calderas is scheduled for September 23-29, 2012, at Hotel Royal in Bolsena, Central Italy.
