In the case of past disasters, communities were always the first responders, and took leading roles in the post disaster recovery. The roles of communities in pre-disaster preparedness are also very important. This is the first comprehensive book available on CBDRR (community based disaster risk reduction) which outlines both research and practice, citing field examples and research results. It provides an overview of the subject and looks at the role of governments, NGOs, academics and corporate sectors in community based disaster risk reduction. It proceeds to examine experiences from Asian and African countries, and concludes by looking ahead to the future perspective of CBDRR.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 234mmItem Length: 156mmItem Width: 38mmItem Weight: 757gContributor: Rajib Shaw (Edited by), Rajib Shaw (Series edited by)Author: Rajib ShawGenre: Science Nature & MathBook Series: Community, Environment and Disaster Risk ManagementRelease Year: 2012 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
