The Jindal School of Public Health & Human Development (JSPH) organized a lecture series "Disaster Resilience and Infrastructure Preparedness." This lecture brings together students, faculty, and global researchers to explore the intersections of post-disaster reconnaissance, hospital functionality, and community resilience. Drawing on field experiences and interdisciplinary research, the guest speakers shared insights into how built environments and social systems respond to crises—and how we can design for recovery and preparedness.
