Article Abstract:
Pakistan lies in one of the world's most active seismic zones, however, it lacked proper information regarding earthquakes and infrastructure to deal with disaster management. In the wake of the 2005 earthquake which killed at least 73,000 people, government has pledged millions of dollars to build new seismic network, and local universities are ramping up programmes in seismology and earthquake engineering to improve infrastructure and educate common man in disaster management.
