BUST Hosts International Natural Disaster Management Workshop

Participants from the University of Douala, Pan-African Institute for Development - West Africa (PAID-WA) Buea, Institute of Agricultural Research, Bamenda University of Science and Technology (BUST) and some NGOs converged on BUST campus, Saturday November 26 2011, for a workshop aimed at defining the role of informal (community-based) response mechanisms in managing natural risks and shocks, the latter of which cause less damage and deaths (usually of less than a hundred) than full-blown disasters.

 

The Vice-Chancellor of BUST, Prof. Joseph B. Suh,  pointed out the importance of the workshop by drawing the attention of participants to the impacts of shocks and disasters on the inhabitants and economy of any affected area, remarking that such mishaps bring much predicament to the rich and poor alike. hence his call to participants to explore their knowledge of human habitats, systems and the environment to enable society to “move forward with confidence towards addressing the challenges that confront us”.
