Visit to the CPPS

The CPPS (“Centre Pédagogique pour la Prévention des Séismes”) is a newly developed educational centre to learn about earthquakes, seismic hazard and related topics, hosted by the HES-SO in Sion. It will be open to the public in the Autumn, and during the preparation phase we (a group of 13 colleagues from UNIL-ISTE) had the opportunity to visit and test the exhibit, including the earthquake simulator! It was a great experience. For more details on the CPPS: http://www.cpps-vs.ch/fr-fr/
