April 2015, saw Nepal being hit with a massive 7.8 magnitude earthquake. With 2,000 people dead and many injured, the country had to pull all its resources to get rescue efforts going. While recovery efforts is still ongoing, many NGOs, companies and aid providers need to figure out how to operate and protect their workers and assets in the region.
