What's in a Name? - #NoNaturalDisasters

In this Special Emergency Preparedness Week Episode, we’re talking disaster. Just disaster, because as we hope to convince you on this episode, the term ‘Natural Disaster’ is both technically incorrect, and potentially damaging. But why is that, and what can we do about it? To find out, we will be speaking with Kevin Blanchard about the #NoNaturalDisasters campaign which argues that changing the way we talk about disaster can also change minds, and lead to more proactive risk reduction initiatives. We’ll also be reviewing the #nonaturaldisasters toolkit to see if there is something in there for you!
