Presentation transcript:

THREE STEPS TOWARDS GLOBAL DISASTER RESILIENCE Walter Hays, Global Alliance for Disaster Reduction, University of North Carolina, USA

PLANET EARTH IS IMPACTED BY A CONTINUUM OF NATURAL HAZARDS THAT OFTEN BECOME DISASTERS EARTHQUAKES TSUNAMIS SEVERE WINDSTORMS VOLCANOES FLOODS WILDFIRES

FROM 900 NATURAL DISASTERS PER YEAR TO DISASTER RESILIENCE IN ALL 200 NATIONS Is a 3-Part Story That Could Take 40 Years or More to achieve

GLOBAL LEARNING:

STEP ONE: SYNCHRONIZED GLOBAL LEARNING AFTER EACH DISASTER Use the scientific, technical and political resources of all 200 nations to learn “What Happened” and “Why ” After Every Disaster

2012 FACT We have the scientific, and technical knowledge to do it.

BASIC PHYSICS, EARTH SCIENCE AND GLOBAL MONITORING PROVIDE UNDERSTANDING OF “WHAT HAPPENED” AND “WHY” WHEN A NATURAL HAZARD OCCURS ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD

ARCHITECTURE, ENGINEERING, SOCIAL, AND HEALTH-CARE SCIENCES PROVIDE UNDERSTANDING OF “WHAT HAPPENED” AND “WHY” WHEN A NATURAL HAZARD OCCURS SOMEWHERE IN THE WORLD AND CAUSES MORBIDITY, MORTALITY, LOSS OF FUNCTION, AND ECONOMIC LOSSES

EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT SCIENCE PROVIDES UNDERSTANDING OF “WHAT HAPPENED” AND “WHY” WHEN A NATURAL HAZARD OVERWHELMS THE CAPACITY OF THE COMMUNITY TO RESPOND AND BECOMES A DISASTER

THE AGENDA FOR PROFESSIONALS ( ) USE EXISTING RESOURCES IMPROVE DELIVERY INFRASTRUCTURE IDENTIFY TARGETS OF OPPORTUNITY CREATE TURNING POINTS OF CHANGE ONGOING DIALOGUE FOR ALL NATIONS TOWARDS GLOBAL DISASTER RESILIENCE

2012 FACT The last word has not been written on what we know about Planet Earth’s past and present disaster- causing-events, SO, let’s get on with writing them for the benefit of all 200 nations.

BOOK OF BOOK OF KNOWLEDGE - Perspectives On “What Happened”and “Why? KNOWLEDGE - Perspectives On “What Happened”and “Why?

GLOBAL EDUCATION SURGES:

STEP TWO: A GLOBAL EDUCATION SURGE AFTER EACH DISASTER Use scientific, technical and political resources to communicate “What Happened” and “Why to All 200 Nations

REGIONAL PARTNERSHIPS FOR DELIVERY OF KNOWLEDGE AND INFORMATIONE EUROPE MEDITERRANEAN SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA ASIA AUSTRALIA & PACIFIC ISLANDS SOUTH AMERICA & CARIBBEAN REGIONAL KNOWLEDGE DIFFUSION NETWORKS GOAL: COMMUNITY DISASTER RESILIENCE - NORTH AMERICA

FACT: DURING THE NEXT 40 YEARS, PLANET EARTH WILL LIKELY BE IMPACTED BY … 4,000 DAMAGING EARTHQUAKES 50 TSUNAMIS 1,600 SEVERE WINDSTORMS 100 VOLCANIC ERUPTIONS 20,000 FLOODS 8,000 WILDFIRES

TOWARDS DISASTER RESILIENCE TOWARDS DISASTER RESILIENCE THE KNOWLEDGE BASE Alternative Practices Increased Knowledge, and Understanding Hazard Characterization Vulnerability Classifications Event-Action Capability Collect, Store and Process Data Interface with Other Information Sources Cause & Effect Relationships CAPACITY BUILDING Satisfy Information Needs Public/Private Sector Partnership Use the Knowledgebase Provide Access from Remote Sites Menu Driven System with Relational Data CONTINUING EDUCATION Up Close and Personal and Distance Learning Update Knowledge Bases After Each Disaster Disaster Scenarios Public/Private Sector Cooperation Toolboxes for Disaster Reduction DISASTER RESILIENCE: BUILING An Infrastructure For Delivery of Knowledge and Information to Communities os All 200 Nations

GLOBAL IMPLEMENTATION:

STEP THREE: A GLOBAL IMPLEMENTATION PLAN FOR DISASTER RESILIENCE Use the scientific, technical and political resources of all 200 nations to implement “Policies That Mandate Use of Best Practices”

MEANINFUL CHANGE INCREASED RESOURCES DELIVERY MECHANISMS IDENTIFICATION OF TARGETS OF OPPORTUNITY METRICS FOR MEASURING TURNING POINTS OF CHANGE ONGOING DIALOGUE ON THE CHALLENGES TO BUILD A CULTURE OF RESILIENCE REGIONAL ALLIANCES FOR DISASTER RESILIENCE

CREATE TURNING POINTS FOR CHANGE EDUCATION SURGE: PENETRATE SOCIETY IGNORANCE TO ENLIGHTENMENT APATHY TO EMPOWERMENT BOUNDARIES TO SEAMLESS ENABLEMENT OF POLITICAL WILL TOWARDS DISASTER RESILIENCE

GOAL: GLOBAL DISASTER RESILIENCE FLOODS SEVERE WIND STORMS EARTHQUAKES DROUGHTS LANDSLIDES WILDFIRES VOLCANIC ERUPTIONS TECHNOLOGICAL HAZARDS GLOBAL CLIMATE CHANGE TERRORISM INCREASED TECHNICAL AND POLITICL CAPACITY OF COMMUNITY TO COPE INCREASED OWNERSHIP AND USE OF KNOWLEDGE AND INFORMATION RESILIENCE AT COMMUNITY LEVEL

SUCCESS: GLOBAL DISASTER RESILIENCE BY 2050
