Support Action for Strengthening PAlestine capabilities for seismic Risk Mitigation (SASPARM 2.0)

  • Project

The main objective of the project is to raise the risk perception by population. In order to define the seismic risk pending on individual properties a Web-Based Platform (WBP) will be implemented. The WBP integrates a database (DB) to collect vulnerability data on buildings, self-assessment tools to allow common people and practitioners to understand potentially unsafe situations and how to mitigate the risk related to critical situations. Training will play a fundamental role in the project activities and the target groups are students, practitioners, citizens and stakeholders. A proper seismic risk perception will help citizens to be addressed towards policy for risk management aimed to mitigate the socio-economic losses such as insurance coverage.
