"Convincing people that traditional methods aren’t earthquake resistant is one way to sidestep the issue." Actually, the really old traditional buildings in morroco are quite earthquake resistant, because they are still standing and it was not the first earthquake there. It's the cheaply build new houses, that are the problem and yes, now is the time to give awareness that you should not build too cheaply and what one can do even with limited ressources. But I fear that the main response will be literal death penalty for some building company owners (morroco is a quite absolutistic monarchy) and otherwise not much change.
