Mission: We are the National Science Foundation's designated information clearinghouse for the societal dimensions of hazards and disasters. We are dedicated to reducing disaster harm by:
- Building connections between researchers, nonprofit and private sector professionals, the media, policymakers, and federal, state, local, tribal, and territorial officials;
- Translating and sharing hazards and disaster research and information;
- Advancing social science and interdisciplinary knowledge, with a special emphasis on socially marginalized populations; and
- Training and mentoring a diverse next generation of hazards and disaster professionals.
