Swiss Cheese Model
Suggests that hazard and disaster risk can be reduced by reducing the number of systemic weaknesses or reducing the gaps in the system.
Modifying the hazard event - Micro (strengthening individual buildings) or macro protection techniques (large scale protection)
-
Sendai Framework (2015)
Four priorities- 1) Understanding disaster risk 2) Strengthening governance 3) Investing in risk reduction for resilience 4) 'Build back better' in recovery
Since 1960 recorded hazards has increased, number of deaths is lower except from mega events and economic costs has increased significantly
Risk Disk Model - Attempts to explain the reasons for the decline in deaths in terms of disaster preparedness, disaster mitigation( hazard proof infrastructure), disaster response and disaster recovery (Assessment of risks during rehabilitation)
