Description

Despite a growth in research on disaster response, too often has there been little synergy between the efforts of disaster researchers and disaster organizations. The "World Disasters Report" makes a contribution towards the formulation of a more professional response to disasters worldwide. The 1996 report provides detailed analysis of the complex issues relating to both natural and man-made disasters, and aims to define and advocate good practice in dealing with them. A broad range of key topics is featured: global food security, food aid and best practice in relief nutrition, future trends in refugee and displaced person assistance, and the lessons learned from the Kobe earthquake, former Yugoslavia and the Oklahoma terrorist bombing. In addition, the report contains a comprehensive database compiled of global disaster statistics.
