IN HARM'S WAY
An Ounce of Disaster Prevention is Worth Tons of Disaster Relief
How In Harm's Way Started
After a devastating tsunami claimed the lives of more than 280,000 in 2004, Brigham Young University Professor Ron Harris knew his simple geologic outreach approach could prevent disasters like this from happening again.
Our Approach
Risk Assessment
Our geohazards research and monitoring in populated regions threatened by nature provides ways to predict who is most at risk.
Risk Communication
We work with local community leaders and educators to communicate risk to those in harm's way.
Risk reduction
We help local communities to implement natural hazard risk reduction strategies. Our efforts have saved over 10,000 lives.
