Quality research provides the foundation for better public policy and disaster management, ICLR's research findings are used to help consumers better understand the hazards they face, and to identify simple steps they can take to better protect their families and homes.
ICLR is committed to reducing disaster deaths, injuries and property damage through the development of disaster prevention knowledge, and the broad dissemination of its research findings. This research deals with damage from wind, snow, ice, earthquakes, mould and a range of other hazards.
