Concepts in Evaluating DisastersPhenomenon: Disaster type and
intensity
Vulnerability: Predisposition and capacity of local response
Impact: Effect on population

Prevention and preparedness Prevention-elimination of hazards
(ie: flood control) Mitigation-minimize destruction and disruption
Reduction of vulnerability is really development: development of
diversified economies diversified agriculture identification of
vulnerable locations/populations development of a vulnerability
reduction strategy strengthen coping mechanisms (crops etc) develop
local links to NGOs reduction in dependence
