“CONCEPT OF VULNERABILITY”
Vulnerability is the
degree to which a population, individual or organization is
unable to anticipate, cope with, resist and recover from the
impacts of disasters.
![Page 8: Ehs 314 Concluding Lecture](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052301/559418e01a28ab810d8b45ca/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Human actions that increase
vulnerability to disasters…
![Page 9: Ehs 314 Concluding Lecture](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052301/559418e01a28ab810d8b45ca/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
DRAW AND EXPLAIN THE SIGNIFICANCE OF
“THE DISASTER MANAGEMENT CYCLE”
![Page 10: Ehs 314 Concluding Lecture](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052301/559418e01a28ab810d8b45ca/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The disaster-management cycle
![Page 11: Ehs 314 Concluding Lecture](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052301/559418e01a28ab810d8b45ca/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Explain this statement…
“Disaster vulnerability is a function of
exposure to hazards and threats, and
reduced capacity to cope and recover”
![Page 12: Ehs 314 Concluding Lecture](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052301/559418e01a28ab810d8b45ca/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

LIST & EXPLAIN THREE(3) HUMAN
ACTIONS THAT INCREASE
VULNERABILITY TO DISASTERS
![Page 14: Ehs 314 Concluding Lecture](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052301/559418e01a28ab810d8b45ca/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
IMPROPER RESOURCE MANAGEMENT
Improper land use and land development can increase the physical magnitude of hazards. Deforestation
provides a classic example. Many rural people with low incomes convert trees into charcoal. Denuded of vegetation,
the land is less able to absorb rainfall, becomes increasingly prone to drought and, because of the increased run-off
of water and soil erosion, flooding may be increased downstream.
![Page 15: Ehs 314 Concluding Lecture](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052301/559418e01a28ab810d8b45ca/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
RURAL/URBAN CONNECTIONS
A sizeable proportion of recent urban migrants report leaving rural areas
because of disasters from which they have been unable to recover. This
emphasizes the importance of including the process of recovery (or failure of recovery) within the concept of the
disaster cycle, as survivors of one disaster who do not recover are less resilient and
more vulnerable to the next disaster.

GLOBAL ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGE
There is an increasing evidence of global climatic change. Although the long-range
consequences are hard to predict, more severe cyclonic storms, an increase in
both flooding and drought, and a trend towards desertification cannot be ruled
out. The secondary consequences of global climatic change could well result in new hazards. Wildfires and mudslides may become more frequent in the wake of
increased drought and flooding.
