Keywords:Disaster Storytelling

Our goal is to create a space where general audiences can listen to domestic and foreign reporters, journalists, broadcasters, research scientists,and administrator of past disaster sites as they present examples of their research investigations and participate in panel discussions. We aim to convey the importance of survivors of natural disasters sharing their stories as a long-term method of preventing future large-scale loss of life.
