\"\"Low-frequency, high-impact events such as earthquakes and tsunamis are not preventable, but such high losses of human life are. We know from historical data that the world has seen a significant reduction in disaster deaths through earlier prediction, more resilient infrastructure, emergency preparedness, and response systems. However, those at low incomes are often the most vulnerable to disaster events: improving living standards, infrastructure and response systems in these regions are essential to preventing deaths from natural disasters in the coming decades. (Source: Hannah Ritchie and Max Roser (2020) - \"Natural Disasters\". Published online at OurWorldInData.org.)<\/p>\n

With the global increase of natural disasters, missional Christians are needed across the world to serve in the mission of God through responding to community trauma. Through the Undergraduate Certificate in Crisis & Disaster Management, you gain the understanding and skills necessary to lead in each of the four phases of community emergency management: preparedness, mitigation, response and recovery.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
