Natural and Environmental Disaster Reduction in the Middle East: an agenda for engineers and UNESCO


Language: Français

Earthquakes in the Mediterranean region have provided a rallying point for professionals and policy makers throughout the region and windows of opportunity since 1988 for multinational collaboration through programs and projects across a geographically, culturally, and technically diverse region.

Recent programs have served as catalysts for collaboration in the larger Mediterranean region, including:Turkey, Lebanon, Cyprus, Syria, Israel, Jordan, Palestinian Authority, Egypt, Saudi
Arabia, Kuwait, Libya, Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia, Portugal, Spain, Greece, Italy, France, Albania, and the former Yugoslavia, along with participating observers from Iran and Russia.

This lecture was delivered by Badaoui Rouhban, then chief of the UNESCO section of Engineering and Technology, during the First International Convention of Lebanese Engineers and Architects, Beirut 1-6 August 2001
