What this episode covers

Professor and author Ilan Kelman explains why the events described as 'natural disasters' are often the outcome of inherently unequal and unjust systems which don't allow the individuals who are part of them to access the same survival tools and employ the same recovery strategies. He discusses the importance of considering a variety of factors such as the political, economic and social contingencies when drafting policies around natural hazards, and concludes with an appeal to all human beings to be kinder to one another.Resources athttps://reteach.org.uk/subject/geography/how-decision-making-affects-vulnerability-to-hazardshttps://reteach.org.uk/subject/geography/natural-hazards-impacts-responses-and-human-influence
