Acerca del evento
Major disasters can be catalysts for change, prompting shifts in our worldviews and inspiring innovations in research, policy, and practice. The Natural Hazards Center’s Disasters as Turning Points webinar series explores events that have altered the trajectory of the hazards and disaster field through conversations with the people who studied or responded to them.
These free, one-hour panel sessions feature inspiring speakers who will revisit major disasters five, 10, 15, or 20 years later. Through retrospection, the series seeks to illuminate progress made, while calling attention to missed opportunities for change.
