Disasters Destroy in Seconds

WHO Needs You To Be Fast!

Over the last decade, more than half a million people have died in devastating floods, cyclones, earthquakes, and tsunamis in South-East Asia.

Health facilities are lifelines in the aftermath of such disasters, yet they often collapse or fail when most needed – when communities have been hardest hit.

Governments in South-East Asia have committed to ensuring health facilities, old or new, are safe.

This means that the structure is strong enough to withstand a disaster, that there are contingency plans in place and that staff is trained to respond to emergencies.

This will save thousands of lives.

Help WHO push for safe hospitals in disasters.
