Thanks for the information on these resources. Can anyone help me?
I am looking for a high quality distance learning Msc or equivalent on
disaster management. As far as I have found, most courses are full-time Msc
or short distance-learning diploma courses Does anyone have any
recommendations?
Thanks
Tony
