My first lesson is about the number of natural hazards in the area. Earthquakes – Probably the most well-known is the earthquake which hit Haiti on 12th January 2010, affecting 3 million people and killing an estimated 100,000 to 160,000. It is lucky that the people are resilient and ‘just get on with it’ after a disaster.
