Welcome to the Curating Crises database! 

Here you can find archive materials relating to volcanic eruptions and associated hazards (e.g., earthquakes) in the Caribbean between 1890 and 2000

The team at Curating Crises have put together some Exhibits that highlight some of the interesting stories they've uncovered. 

Please explore the website to learn more about how knowledge was generated and transferred during times of volcanic unrest.
