The Sustainable Development Policy Institute (SDPI) would hold discussions on disaster management at Sustainable Development Conference (SDC) to be held from 7th to 9th December.
The October 8 earthquake has killed more than 55,000 people and injured nearly 78,000 leaving millions homeless and changing and destroying their livelihood patterns forever. Though massive relief activities are being carried out by governmental, non-governmental and international agencies, organizations and individuals, the earthquake has also made us ponder over a number of issues related to disaster management.
The panels being organized for the conference include one on Earthquake, Injuries Disabilities and Rehabilitation and Disaster Management. The panel on Earthquake, Injuries Disabilities and Rehabilitation will examine the medical trauma of the quake victims and how they can be rehabilitated.
