004: How to Address Compound Disasters with Renae Hanvin Part 2

How to Disaster

“Preparedness and resilience is a shared responsibility.” -Renae Hanvin

Episode Description:

For years, we’ve seen how the intensity and scope of disasters have evolved, but our preparedness is yet to be tested again with this new thing called “compound disasters''. It is already happening and will keep happening in the years to come. What can we do to address this? Jennifer and corporate2community founder, Renae Hanvin comes together for part 2 to discuss how serious compound disasters can be and what approaches and strategies are needed to increase resiliency, access, and equity despite the chaos. They also talk about how to bridge the gap between higher-level policies and grassroots, how fundings can sometimes fall into the hands of “overnight” resiliency experts and the extent of damage it can bring, and how to set up systems and processes that will allow us to give more and help better.
