The Hazards Forum, founded in 1989, is an independent, non-profit, non-governmental, professional association promoting the study of disasters (and resulting learning), public understanding of risk and of risk reduction strategies. The Hazards Forum was founded by the UK’s four principal engineering institutions: the Institution of Civil Engineers, the Institution of Electrical Engineers, the Institution of Mechanical Engineers and the Institution of Chemical Engineers,[1] and has since welcomed members from other engineering bodies, industry, and the public and charity sectors.
It is also a learned 'Associated Society' of the Institution of Civil Engineers.[2]
