The ultimate objective is always to prevent or better manage the effects of hazards, be they <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>Climatic Hazards<\/strong><\/span>,\u00a0<span style=\"color: #993300;\"><strong>Geological Hazards<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0or\u00a0<span style=\"color: #ff00ff;\"><strong>Technological Hazards<\/strong><\/span>.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>Climatic Hazards<\/strong><\/span>: Conduct research and strengthen capacity to support the national agenda on adaptation to extreme weather and climate change. The focus of research includes disaster prevention, risk reduction and management, post-disaster recovery and reconstruction. Aspects taken into account are science and technology for disaster risk reduction, socio-economic impacts and vulnerability assessments, education and awareness as well as governance for human security and sustainability.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><strong>Geological Hazards<\/strong><\/span>: Also, geohazards, include all geological or hydrological processes. Geological hazards include earthquakes, tsunamis, landslides, slope failures, debris flows, subsidence and sinkholes. Aims to strengthen the emerging international strategy for disaster mitigation and prevention. To shift the focus of current practices, from a responsive to a more preventive approach.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #ff00ff;\"><strong>Technological Hazards<\/strong><\/span>: Our research is currently focused on reducing chemical hazards, which is a relatively unexplored field in the Asian region. This is in line with the priority of the government in establishing an efficient national system on chemical management.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"color: #c0c0c0;\"><em>see also<\/em><\/span> <a title=\"Core Business - Research Programmes\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ukm.my\/seadpri\/?page_id=48\">Research Programme<\/a> and <a title=\"Research Project\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ukm.my\/seadpri\/?page_id=307\">Projects<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">b) Education and Training<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The main education activity is in the form of Postgraduate courses.
