how much has the world population grown since 1970-2020
87%
243
population densities most at risk in disasters
high population places more at risk to communities in disasters * urbanization puts more in high risk areas and safet living areas taken by the wealthy * high poverty reusolts in human settlemnt in less desirable areas and potentially inadequation evacuation transport
244
problem of AAR
might lack documentaiton, objectivity, and perspective
245
link between urbanization and disasters
high population places put people more at risk * urbaization puts more in high risk areas and safer living areas are taken by the wealthY * high poverty results in human settlent in less desirable areas and potentially inadequate evacuation transport
246

we have beocme reliant on technology wo assessing the risk/impact of catastorophe of failure w/o the system
248
what do you need to do if you want to do a disciplined study of disasters

cyclic model of disasters

using the "recovery" phase of disaster response to rehab/reconstruct to increase community resillience via integrating disaster risk reduciton via resvitalizing livihood, economy
260
4 Priority Areas in Risk Reduction
1. understand disaster risk 2. strengthen disaster risk governance to manage disaster riks 3. investing in disaster risk reduction for resillience (drives innovation) 4. enhance disaster preparedness for effective rsponse and to "build back better" in recovery/he hab/reconstruciton

300
APC-MADRO
Asian-Pacific Regional Guidelines for hte use for foreign miitary assets indatural disaster response operations

Oslo Guidelines
1994 can only deploy at request of affectd state. affected state has overall operation in disaster reposne operations under civilian control limited deployments in scope/time, staff to fill gaps

benefits of military aid in humanitarian crisis -5
* has rapidly deployable operational capabilities in austere environments * self sustaining expeditionary units * trained to operate in chos * contigency planning * security
303
6 aspects of effective military assets in humanitarian crisis
timeliness: main factor effectiving effectivenes. if assets are slow to arrive, it impedes appropriateness: how well the capability suits teh rtesponse/sutibility to local culture/political response efficiency absorptive capacity: ability of a disaster managemenbt institution to coordinate and effectively use assets during a relief operation coordination: information management is cruicial to success/failure
304
why is timeliness important for effective military assets in humanitarian crisis
timeliness is a main factor affectiving effectivness. if assets are slow to arrive, it impedes deployment of civilian alternates
305
why is appropriateness an important aspect of military assets in humanitarian crisis
