Landslide Hazard Program

The Landslide Hazard Program is a scientific initiative that studies areas prone to landslides—where earth and rocks move downhill, often due to rain, earthquakes, or human activity. Its goal is to identify and assess regions at risk, helping communities and authorities prepare and plan for potential landslide events. By analyzing terrain, weather patterns, and other factors, the program provides critical information to reduce damage and protect lives and property. Essentially, it aims to understand where landslides might happen and how to mitigate their impacts effectively.
