This book focuses on land and disaster governance in Asian
countries. The Asian region has become increasingly vulnerable to
natural disasters, including floods, cyclones, storms, earthquakes,
drought, typhoons and tsunamis. Further, as a result of
unsustainable changes being made in patterns of land use, catchment
and coastal zones, increasing population density, migration
patterns, and the spread of consumer culture across countries, the
impact of natural disasters has increased manifold. The book
addresses two major concerns in this field. Firstly, it discusses
topics intended to raise awareness among all stakeholders of the
critical aspects of disaster management in the context of Asia.
Secondly, it calls upon policymakers, researchers, academics,
practitioners, private enterprises and civil society organizations,
as well as all those who have been, are and will be affected by
natural disasters to search for innovative and novel approaches to
reducing risk and managing disasters.
