The scope of this paper is “Challenging Disaster Administration: Toward Community-Based Disaster Resilience” article by Liza Ireni-Saban published in 2012. In the past, disaster management was an area of undeveloped process from a community level. In fact, disaster’s consequences go beyond losing lives and properties damages. Therefore, the article illustrated different models of managing disaster process of a community based level and provide some guidelines that would help to diverse the consequences
OF NATURAL DISASTERS ABSTRACT: Disasters of both natural and technological origin have a considerable impact on communities. The effects of disasters in India are significantly reduced by well established counter disaster arrangements at all three levels of government. These arrangements comprise comprehensive plans of prevention, preparedness, response and recovery and in more recent times, of mitigation. The economic effects of disasters can be devastating and widespread. When disasters strike houses
Post-Natural Disaster: Transitional Shelters Alyssa Rupp University of Minnesota The obtainment of a safe shelter is placed alongside nourishment in a human’s basic survival requirements. It lands within the second layer of Maslow’s hierarchy of needs theory, following the most essential physiological layer (breathing, food, water, sleep etc.). 17% of the global population is without an acceptable shelter. Millions of people live in homes in desperate need of energy
Natural and artificial disasters have always posed a threat to the development of countries across the world. In that regard, different governments have already established strategies that can be implemented to deal effectively with the disasters, which occur. It has been observed that the developing countries are slightly behind than the developed ones regarding dealing effectively with the disasters that occur abruptly. When a disaster occurs, the priority is to reduce the vulnerability of people
“DISASTERS CREATES OPPURTUNITIES FOR DEVELOPMENT” DISASTER: Disaster can be defined as “The occurrence of a sudden or major misfortune which disrupts the basic fabric and normal functioning of a society, or community.” “An event or series of events which gives rise to casualties and/or damage or loss of property, infrastructure, essential services or means of livelihood on a scale which is beyond the normal capacity of the affected community’s ability to cope with out aid.” According to UNISDR
(bleeding to death)I wanted to research on this natural disasters because I want to help make the world safe and its life in the world. I care about the destruction of these natural disasters. There can be a building that is one billion dollars that is just built, then it was destroyed during a tornado or hurricane.The main point or question i’m overall trying to cover is that why don’t we try to stop or predict and help fight the disasters in the world. We can help in a lot of ways to help stop
“We cannot stop natural disasters but we can arm ourselves with knowledge: so many lives wouldn’t have to be lost if there was enough disaster preparedness.”(Petra Nemcova) Disasters can happen in what seems like a moment. Some have time to prepare for what will come, while others suffer the effects. Petra Nemcova is one of the many helping to fix the effects of disasters and comfort those in need. She does this by founding the Happy Hearts Fund. This Fund rebuilds safe and resilient schools for
experience of those post-Bhopal. Biological citizenship is a unique element of technical disasters because technical disasters are made up of two competing logics: “the political logic of risk containment and a personal logic of survival” (Petryna, 2002, 19). Technological disasters are novel; the scope and acting agent probably has not been studied extensively, creating the need for this knowledge post-disaster. Expertise on such tenuous issues is difficult to come by, leading to the bastardization

A hailstorm and a cyclone also result in absolute disaster and breakdown of life. Trees are blown off their very roots, and houses arid huge buildings are dug out of their very foundation, and all life is destroyed or dislocated. As far as Bangladesh is concerned, nature has been very kind on the one hand and very cruel on the other. I say this because, not one year goes when there has been no natural disaster. However, when such calamities do occur, the entire machinery, Governmental
