Fault Line Living - L'Aquilla Earthquake

Fault Line Living are winners of the 2010 'Go Beyond' bursary from The Royal Geographical Society (with IBG) and Land Rover. This annual award aims to promote a wider understanding and enjoyment of geography as well as facilitate individuals going beyond their normal limits and boundaries.

Fault Line Living is a 15,000 mile expedition and multi-media project exploring the human stories of people living on fault lines. Fault lines are where the natural world most catastrophically collides with the human world. Cities can be torn apart, children can grow up knowing an earthquake drill before knowing a nursery rhyme. On the other hand, the benefits and even the allure of living near a fault line can outweigh the risks.
