Case Studies in Disaster Recovery : A Volume in the Disaster and Emergency Management: Case Studies in Adaptation and Innovation Series Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Case Studies in Disaster Recovery, the initial release in the Disaster and Emergency Management: Case Studies in Adaptation and Innovation series, explores recovery from a number of perspectives: household, community and nation.

Chapters cover the concept of social vulnerability to explain/predict recovery outcomes, consider broader themes of sustainability, assess community vulnerability and capacity, and explore the challenges associated with long-term recovery and disaster case management.

Cases explored illustrate the ways in which communities and governments used the window of opportunity after a disaster to make changes that reduce future risk and vulnerability.

Included cases illustrate the diversity of change realized in communities following disasters.
