BACKGROUND
The lecture will explore two topics: Disaster and How to Manage it. Disasters are seen as the effect of hazards on vulnerable areas. From academic perspective, disasters are seen as the consequence of inappropriately managed risk. These risks are the product of a combination of both hazards and vulnerability. After exploring disasters, the speaker will explain disaster management that can be defined as the organization and management of resources and responsibilities for dealing with all humanitarian aspects of emergencies, in particular preparedness, response, and recovery in order to lessen the impact of disasters.
