Description
Disasters happen in slow motion—over and over—even though we typically see them as sudden, unpredictable, and unexpected events. With a focus on coastal communities, this session explores the role of social inequity as the driver of the repetitive disaster cycle, and how post-disaster planning responses can help break the cycle.
