Shakeout

ShakeOut is a global initiative that encourages millions of people to participate in earthquake drills at work, school, or home, promoting safety and preparedness. The event, celebrated annually on October 16, allows individuals and organizations to register their drills and practice earthquake safety at a time of their choosing.

Originally launched in California, ShakeOut has expanded to include numerous regions across the United States and other countries, fostering local and regional coordination through emergency management agencies and various organizations. Participants can join together through videoconferencing, enhancing community engagement and awareness in earthquake preparedness.
