Presentation/s:

World Vision Nepal’s National Director Liz Satow shared her experience of the 2015 earthquakes and how World Vision has been working with communities, the Government, and other NGOs to restore services. She also talked about the challenge of quickly switching the focus from long-term development activities into short-term relief operations and then planning for the transition back to development activities again.

In 2006, Liz joined World Vision’s Global Rapid Response Team (GRRT), where she responded to major disasters for over six years.
