Earthquakes, tsunamis, cyclones, floods ─the South-East Asia Region regularly faces some of the world’s worst natural disasters.

We also call on health professionals, engineers, architects, city planners, financial institutions, policy- and decision-makers to come together to Save Lives: Make Hospitals Safe in Emergencies.
