In 1998 Armenia was commemorating the tenth anniversary of the
catastrophic Spitak earthquake. The Second International Conference
on "Earthquake Hazard and Seismic Risk Reduction" sponsored by the
Government of the Republic of Armenia and United Nation's
International Decade for Natural Disaster Reduction (UN/IDNDR) was
held in dedication to that event between 14-21 September (later
referred to as Yerevan Conference). The Yerevan Conference has been
organized by the National Survey for Seismic Protection (NSSP) of
the Republic of Armenia. All level's decision-makers (from the
ministers to the local authorities), politicians, scientists,
leaders of the executive and legislative powers, psychologists,
leading businessmen, representatives from the private sector and
the media as well as from the International Organizations have been
invited by the Armenian NSSP to take part in joint discussion of
the Seismic Risk Reduction Problem for the first time in the
history of such forums. Armenian NSSP's such initiative has been
triggered by the experience of the Spitak earthquake and other
disasters. They showed that it will be possible to reduce the
risks, posed by the natural disaster, only through the common
efforts of all the community in co-operation with the International
institutions.
