🌍 Earthquakes are inevitable—but disasters are not.
So how do we stop earthquakes from shaking lives apart?
This short video highlights 4 practical actions that can protect lives:
🏗️ Build and retrofit earthquake-resistant structures
👷 Train and empower local builders and engineers
📊 Learn from every disaster to build back better
📚 Teach risk awareness early—especially to children
💡 These simple steps can make the difference between devastation and resilience.
🕊️ On 29 April – International Day in Memory of the Victims of Earthquakes, we honour those we’ve lost by protecting those still at risk.
