Case Studies in Disaster Mitigation and Prevention: Disaster and
Emergency Management: Case Studies in Adaptation and Innovation
series presents cases illustrating efforts to reduce human and
material losses associated with disasters. This volume demonstrates
that mitigation is an ongoing phase in which communities
continually pursue long-term hazard resistance and reduction. Cases
illustrate the importance of risk assessment in the development of
mitigation strategies through hazard mapping and multi-hazard
mitigation planning. Cases also illustrate approaches to reduction
risk through structural and non-structural means, giving
consideration to benefits or limitations of these strategies in
different contexts. The contributions of different mitigation
activities to disaster risk reduction efforts are examined using
the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction.
