Coping with earthquakes and preventing them from turning into disasters requires a chain of responsibility ranging from individual efforts to comprehensive strategies. Being aware that our country is situated in an active seismic zone and understanding the importance of addressing earthquakes with diligence, we should make effective earthquake preparedness a part of our lives. On an individual level, we should acquire the necessary knowledge and skills to protect ourselves and our loved ones. This education will enable us to feel prepared and safe in the face of a potential earthquake by learning a comprehensive set of precautions and rules that cover the pre-earthquake, earthquake, and post-earthquake phases, as well as understanding the nature of earthquakes and how to protect ourselves from them.
