Disaster Management

Nepal lies in the central part of the youngest and most active regions—the Himalayas. Owing to its intricate tectonic setup and geographical complexities, Nepal is susceptible to various natural hazards. These hazards, being unpredictable, can lead to considerable impacts and losses. The principal goal of our team is to actively engage in research, taking a proactive stance to reduce and manage the risks associated with these natural hazards.
