☀️🛣️ Why do roads in Europe buckle at 40°C while Indian highways withstand 55°C?
It comes down to engineering for local climate realities.
In this #SundayRead for @firstpost, @snehaswaminath1 explores what these differences reveal about resilience ��� and the need for #resilient healthcare systems in #extremeheat conditions.

🎥 Media Interactions:
The mission and simulation drew significant regional media coverage, with the DG speaking to @BBSBhutan and @KuenselOnline, and on a panel on #resilientinfrastructure that underscored the sustained investment in resilience.
Together, these engagements reflect a shared commitment to a safer, more resilient Bhutan through partnership and preparedness.
CDRI's late-June 🇧🇹 #Bhutan mission underscored how collaboration - through strong partnerships, technical exchange, and public engagement - can drive #resilience.
⛰️ Earthquake Field Simulation:
'The Thimphu Earthquake Contingency Plan Field Training Exercise' brought together over 375 officials, responders, and partners to assess Bhutan’s earthquake preparedness, showcasing strong multi-agency coordination while identifying areas to further strengthen #disasterresilience.
