Italy (Landslide-prone areas)

Italy's landscape includes many mountainous regions, especially in the north and central areas, which are prone to landslides. These occur when heavy rains, earthquakes, or human activity loosen soil and rock on slopes, causing them to slide downhill. Urban areas built on or near unstable slopes face higher risks. Italy's diverse geology and climate contribute to these vulnerabilities, making landslides a concern for safety and infrastructure. Proper planning, monitoring, and land management are essential to mitigate the risks in these landslide-prone areas.
