Korean Society of Hazard Mitigation was founded in 2000 for the purpose of leading academic and technological development in such areas as disaster prevention, preparedness, countermeasure, and recovery in order to protect the lives and properties of our people. Today, it is the largest academic association of disaster and safety professionals with over 3,000 active members.

This society makes every effort to address the issues related to complexation, diversification, and enlargement of disaster risks that are emerging from climate changes.

As the professional association in active reaction to the increasing needs of our society, our society will continue to make the best contribution to escalating the scientific and technological approach toward the domestic and foreign issues regarding disasters and safety.

Thank you.
