The primary goals of this brief are to invoke alertness and
solidarity among the public in earthquake prone areas of India, and
to empower the community to prepare themselves to face and manage
the aftermath of an earthquake. The work presented here sheds new
light on the action plans to be taken by the common public and
public agencies, before, during and after earthquakes to safeguard
lives of people and minimize loss of assets. This carefully
presented book articulates various factors related to earthquake
preparedness, and develops guidelines and useful tips for
communicating them to relevant stakeholders. The book has been
divided into three parts: (i) the first providing background which
explains earthquakes in general and seismicity of India (ii) the
second explores earthquake preparedness intended for individuals,
families and various stakeholders, and (iii) the final section
which describes various strategies for communities to prepare
themselves for a future earthquake.
