Although rare, natural disasters can happen anywhere and at any time. Be informed, have a plan, and prepare for natural disasters abroad.
How to Prepare for Natural Disasters
Natural disasters are often unforeseen, and you may have little advance warning. These events take many forms, ranging from hurricanes, earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions to tornadoes, wildfires, severe weather (heat, winter storms), floods, and landslides or mudslides.
Travel to locations where natural disasters are a risk requires extensive research, planning, and preparation. The video and resources below can help you start the process.
