The tool focuses on assessing public health impacts related to infrastructure and service disruptions caused by earthquakes. In this webinar, researchers who have developed and refined the tool will present the participatory process used to develop the tool, discuss its use on and lessons learned from a reconnaissance trip to Turkey in May, 2023, and explain the ongoing work of the Public Health Subcommittee.
