Earthquake and Severe Wind Exposure and Vulnerability Workshop

Background
The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS), the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) and Geoscience Australia (GA) are currently engaged in programs to better understand and reduce the risks associated with natural hazards in the Philippines. These programs will build upon existing tools and methods to estimate impact for local natural hazard events.
