Development schemes can both increase and decrease vulnerability.........

A growing body of knowledge on the relationships between disasters and development indicates four basic themes as follows:


Disasters set back development programming, destroying years of development initiatives...

Rebuilding after a disaster provides significant opportunities to initiate development programme.


Development programme can increase an area’s susceptibility to disasters....


Development programme can be designed to decrease the susceptibility to disasters and their negative consequences....

The traditional approach to disasters, the attitude was that the disasters, especially natural ones, were an act of god and as such were beyond human control....

 Accepting death and damage to property was part of the costs.


 With such an attitude, most development plans were designed without consideration for the effect disasters would have on community plans and vice versa.


 When a disaster did occur, the response was directed at meeting emergency needs and cleaning up.....
