Ep. 138 Are We Prepared for Global Disasters?
In this episode Jane Kinninmont and Jason Pack discuss the little-known field of 'disaster risk’.
Jane and Jason consider why we need global coordination in order to manage disasters effectively, what treaties and international bodies govern international disaster response, and what successful multilateral efforts in the space of ‘disaster risk’ can teach us about how to Order the Disorder in other domains.
Producer: George McDonagh
