4 TO BECOME DISASTER RESILIENT, OR NOT, THAT IS THE QUESTION

5 UNDERSTANDING DISASTER RESILIENCE A realistic, time-dependent and policy-driven process

6 COMMUNITYCOMMUNITY DATA BASES AND INFORMATION HAZARDS: GROUND SHAKING GROUND FAILURE SURFACE FAULTING TECTONIC DEFORMATION TSUNAMI RUN UP AFTERSHOCKS NATURAL HAZARDS INVENTORY VULNERABILITY LOCATION RISK ASSESSMENT RISK ACCEPTABLE RISK UNACCEPTABLE RISK GOAL: DISASTER RESILIENCE PREPAREDNESS PROTECTION EARLY WARNING EMERGENCY RESPONSE RECOVERY IENCE FIVE PILLARS OF RESILIENCE

7 A DISASTER OCCURS WHEN THE COMMUNITY’S PUBLIC POLICIES ALLOW IT TO BE … UN—PREPARED UN—PROTECTED UN--WARNED UN—ABLE TO RESPOND EFFECTIVELY UN (NON)—RESILIENT IN RECOVERY

8 THE FIVE PILLARS OF DISASTER RESILIENCE 1. PREPAREDNESS (HAZARD, VULNERABILITY, AND RISK ASSESSMENTS; PREDICTIONS, FORECASTS AND WARNING; DISASTER PLANNING SCENARIOS; INSURANCE; INTELLIGENT COMMUNITY); …

9 FROM UN—PREPARED TO PREPAREDNESS

11 HAZARD, VULNERABILITY, AND RISK ASSESSMENTS WHERE WILL THE NAT. HAZARD OCCUR? WHEN? PHYSICAL EFFECTS? HOW BIG OR SEVERE? WHAT IS AT RISK? THE VULNERABILITIES? EXPECTED DAMAGE? EXPECTED SOCIO- ECONOMIC IMPACTS? WHERE WILL THE NAT. HAZARD OCCUR? WHEN? PHYSICAL EFFECTS? HOW BIG OR SEVERE? WHAT IS AT RISK? THE VULNERABILITIES? EXPECTED DAMAGE? EXPECTED SOCIO- ECONOMIC IMPACTS?

12 RISK ASSESSMENT FOR A COMMUNITY RISK = NAT. HAZARD x EXPOSURE SPECIFIC HAZARD: EXPOSURE: PEOPLE BUILDING STOCK INFRASTRUCTURE GOVERNMENT AND BUSINESS ENTERPRISE

13 THE FIVE PILLARS OF DISASTER RESILIENCE (Continued) 2. PROTECTION (IMPLEMENTATION OF BUILDING CODES AND LIFELINE STANDARDS; SITE-SPECIFIC DESIGN AND PERFORMANCE STANDARDS FOR ESSENTIAL AND CRITICAL FACILITIES) …
