Description
Today I welcome Lucy Easthope, Professor in Practice of Risk and Hazard at the University of Durham UK and author of the forthcoming book: When The Dust Settles: Stories of Love, Loss, and Hope from an Expert in Disaster.
Professor Lucy Easthope is a leading authority on recovering from disaster. For over two decades she has challenged others to think differently about what comes next, after tragic events. She is a passionate and thought-provoking voice in an area that few know about: emergency planning. However in the time of the Covid-19 pandemic, her work has become decidedly more mainstream. She has particular interest in the support of children and young people after disaster.
She advised government departments, corporations, emergency and health services and charities during the pandemic. Her book ‘When The Dust Settles’ is published in March 2022. She is known globally for her work and holds research positions in the UK and New Zealand. She is a Professor in Practice of Risk and Hazard at the University of Durham where she Co-Founded the After Disaster Network and is a Fellow in Mass Fatalities and Pandemics at the Centre for Death and Society, University of Bath.
