"Earthquake without Frontiers: A Partnership for Increasing Resilience to Seismic Hazard in the Continents" launched in Nepal
The collaborative research project on “Earthquake without Frontiers: A Partnership for Increasing Resilience to Seismic Hazard in the Continents” has been launched in Nepal formally on 16 January 2013. This Earthquake without Frontiers (EwF) project launch meeting and workshop was hosted by the National Society for Earthquake Technology (NSET-Nepal). The event brought together more than 25 national-level stakeholders involved in earthquake risk reduction in Nepal including representatives from government ministries and departments; international organizations including the UNDP; funding agencies such as the World Bank, DFID; NGOs; and universities.
Live interactive Video conferencing in other parts of the world during the workshop added more value to the event.
Earthquakes without Frontiers is a five-year research project funded by the UK’s Natural Environment Research Council and the Economic and Social Research Council. The project brings together natural and social scientists from Cambridge, Durham, Leeds, Northumbria and Oxford Universities, as well as the British Geological Survey and the Overseas Development Institute, along with collaborators in Nepal, India, China, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Iran, Italy, Greece and Turkey. The project will work closely with local scientists, policy makers, and governmental and non-governmental organizations with the aim of increasing the resilience of populations exposed to earthquakes and related hazards across three case study regions: the Himalayan mountain front; North-East China; and Iran and Central Asia.
