Disaster risk is increasing, not only in number of events, but also
in incurred losses. Such increases are being driven also by the
growing exposure of assets, due to the rapid urban growth, because
vulnerability decreases as countries develop, but not enough to
compensate. The situation will be more and more critical, due to
the growth of the amount of the building stock. Thus we need new
initiatives to foster upgrading of existing building and
enhancement of land planning strategies. "Safe Home" scheme is
aimed at increasing urban safety requirements against hazards under
an advanced labeling approach. It provides a quantitative
evaluation of building performance through an objective,
reproducible approach, assessing risks at a land, urban and
building scale. Aim of this rating system is to result in useful
information to different users, like land planning decision makers,
owners, purchasers, tenants or property and real estate managers.
