Ep 28: There’s no such thing as a ’Natural’ Disaster
In episode 28 of A Woman's Place, Christina reads you a critical essay on the formula that makes up disaster. Looking at the 2010 earthquake in Haiti and contributing vulnerabilities of the society and how economic inequality plays a major role in creating 'disaster'. She discusses disaster as an outcome rather than an event and outlines lessons learned that we can apply to our own communities and personal lives.
In the wake of the IPCC report on Climate Change, if we are to avert disasters today and in the future, we first need to understand how they are created.
