  5. 24. Community-Based Preparedness Trainings to Build and Strengthen Local Capacities for Disaster Preparedness. With lessons learned from Preparedness Trainings in landslide risk communities in Sri Lanka

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

    Författare :Julian Erjautz; [2017]
    Nyckelord :Community-Based Preparedness Trainings; Landslide trainings; Landslide Disaster Risk Reduction; Preparedness; Community based societal services; community development; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Disaster response is most effective, if a high level of preparedness is in place before natural hazards strike. As many low-income countries are under-financed when it comes to Disaster Risk Reduction, it is lower-cost interventions such as Community-Based Preparedness Trainings that they often rely on to provide strategies to reduce the vulnerability of communities.
