Disaster Research Center (DRC)
Disaster Research Center (DRC) : "Established at Ohio State University in 1963 by Professors E. L. Quarantelli, Russell Dynes, and Eugene Haas, and moved to its current location at the University of Delaware in 1985, DRC was the first Center in the world devoted to the social scientific study of disasters. Historically, the Center has conducted field interviews and extended research projects on group, organizational, and community preparation for, response to, and recovery from natural and technological disasters and other community-wide crises for both academic and practical development of the field of disaster research and mitigation".
