Learn About Natural Disasters

Natural disasters can have devastating impacts on communities and individuals, causing loss of life, property damage, and economic hardship. According to the United Nations, natural disasters have caused over 1.3 million deaths and affected 4.4 billion people globally in the past 20 years. However, there are organizations and groups working to promote disaster preparedness and response, such as the Red Cross and Save the Children, and their efforts have helped to mitigate the impacts of natural disasters and provide support to affected communities.

La Maraña, Corp.

We imagine, design, and build collectively. Since 2014, La Maraña is a non-profit organization dedicated to sustainable community development in Puerto Rico, using participatory design to democratize power, strengthen local capacities and transform the territory alongside communities. During these twelve years, community participation has been the axis of our work, guiding projects according to necessities, experiences and social, political and climatic realities of each community. We have collaborated with over 30 projects and generated investment for community infrastructure. We believe that communities have the right to imagine, co-design and co-create the spaces we inhabit. That is why we work from collective management, active listening and knowledge exchange, recognizing community intelligence and strengthening people's capacity to lead and transform their territories.
