Multi-hazard Vulnerability and Resilience Building: Cross Cutting Issues presents multi-disciplinary issues facing disaster risk reduction and sustainable development, focusing on various dimensions of existing and future risk scenarios and highlighting concerted efforts of scientific communities to find new adaptation methods. Disaster risk reduction and resilience requires participation of a wide array of stakeholders, ranging from academicians to policy makers to disaster managers. The book offers evidence-based, problem-solving techniques from social, natural, engineering, and other perspectives, and connects data, research, and conceptual work with practical cases on disaster risk management to capture multi-sectoral aspects of disaster resilience, adaptation strategy, and sustainability. Provides foundational knowledge on integrated disaster vulnerability and resilience building Brings together disaster risk reduction and resilience scientists, policy-makers, and practitioners from different disciplines Includes case studies on disaster resilience and sustainable development from a multi-disciplinary perspective INDICE: Section 1: Introduction and Overview 1.
