Abstract

This study investigates the level of comprehension that educated young people have regarding landslide issues as an environmental hazard and their willingness and perception of taking action to combat these issues. Undergraduate students from the field of civil engineering comprised the group that participated in the survey. The survey was taken by 235 different students. The findings demonstrated that the majority of students had an understanding of natural disasters, in particular, the dangers posed by landslides. Even though some had no experience with landslide-related problems, they continued to live in the stone age.
