In recent years they have become more frequent and intense, often spreading into the built environment where the economic losses and human suffering are significant. With this webinar, Dr. Anne Cope will provide an overview of Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety (IBHS) wildfire research, science-backed mitigation actions and the Wildfire Prepared Home standard.
