Arts-based activism, or artivism, is an effective tool to connect more deeply to disaster-affected communities and cultivate better solutions to the social and systemic issues that lie at the root of disasters.

We're now accepting applications for student volunteers to assist with the Natural Hazards Workshop from July 13 to 16, 2025 and the Researchers Meeting from July 16 to 17, 2025.

We are now accepting applications for two awards: the Mary Fran Myers Scholarship, which recognizes individuals whose commitment to disaster research and practice has the potential to make lasting contributions to reducing disaster vulnerability; and the Disability and Disasters Award, which supports people with disabilities working in disasters, as well as those who care for, study, or advocate on behalf of those with disabilities.
