Risk mitigation refers to the strategies and measures taken to reduce the potential impact of hazardous events, particularly in the context of natural disasters such as earthquakes. It encompasses various approaches to minimizing risks through preparedness, response, recovery, and mitigation techniques that can help protect communities and infrastructure. Effective risk mitigation involves understanding the vulnerabilities and probabilities associated with seismic activity, leading to informed decision-making and resource allocation.
