Abstract
A set of four thematic articles dealing with “Community Participation for Landslide Disaster Risk Reduction” will be published in this issue of Landslides following a call for papers, promoted by the authors, aimed at gathering field experiences in implementing and adopting landslide risk reduction measures at the community level in different social and economic environments. This editorial article briefly introduces the topic, states the objectives and the main findings of the four research studies, and provides some concluding remarks.
