Description

Today is June 1st, or the first day of the hurricane season. In the coming months, many areas around the world will deal with concurrent disasters. Emergency response in natural disasters oftentimes requires the gathering of people, so how will these communities comply with pandemic guidelines while responding to natural disasters? Tune in to this conversation with Aaron Clark-Ginsberg, of the RAND corporation, and Miriam Belblidia, of Imagine Waterworks, to gain a better understanding of how different populations experience disasters in different ways and how resilience planning and hazard mitigation play a huge role in concurrent disasters. Their information can be found here: https://www.rand.org/about/people/c/clark-ginsberg_aaron.html and https://www.imaginewaterworks.org/who-we-are/.
