Giới thiệu về sách điện tử này
Introduction to International Disaster Management, Fifth Edition, offers an unbiased, global perspective for students and practitioners alike. It provides a comprehensive understanding of the disaster management profession, covering the varied sources of risk and vulnerability, the systems that exist to manage hazard risk, and the many different stakeholders involved, from individuals to global organizations. This text also serves as a reference on scores of disaster management topics, including various technological and intentional hazards, on international disaster management structures and systems, on global humanitarian spending and support, and much more. Taking a real-world approach with considerable illustration through case studies and recent and historical disaster events, this book prepares students interested in joining the disaster management community to understand the work they will be doing. In addition, it assists those who already work with the disaster management community by helping them better navigate this complex environment. Fully updated throughout, the new edition includes revised workflows and communications, coverage of emerging global hazards and recent disaster events, and revised sections on the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction, Multi-Hazard Early Warning Systems, and emerging technologies for disaster risk reduction and resilience. Special emphasis is placed throughout on environmental justice, social justice, gender, and equality in global disaster management approaches. Recent disasters addressed across in-depth case studies include the COVID-19 Pandemic, the Tonga Eruption, regional heatwaves, the Beirut Port Explosion, the 2021 Haiti Earthquake, Typhoon Rai, the 2021 Surfside Condo Collapse, the 2022 South Asia Floods, and notable earthquakes.
