Planning for community resiliencea handbook for reducing vulnerability to disasters /[electronic resource] :by Jaimie Hicks Masterson ... [et al.]. - Washington, DC :Island Press/Center for Resource Economics :2014. - x, 362 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

1: The New Era of Catastrophes -- 2: What Is Resilience? -- 3: Organizing and Connecting through the Disaster Phases -- 4: Assessing Hazard Exposure -- 5: Assessing Physical Vulnerability -- 6: Assessing Social Vulnerability -- 7: An Assessment of Hazard Mitigation Plans -- 8: Planner’s Toolbox -- 9: Striving for Consistency -- 10: Conclusion.

How can we plan and design stronger communities? From New Orleans to Galveston to the Jersey Shore, communities struck by natural disasters struggle to recover long after the first responders have left. Globally, the average annual number of natural disasters has more than doubled since 1980. These catastrophes are increasing in number as well as in magnitude, causing greater damage as we experience rising sea levels and other effects of climate change. Communities can reduce their vulnerability to disaster by becoming more resilient -- to not only bounce back more readily from disasters but to grow stronger, more socially cohesive, and more environmentally responsible. To be truly resilient, disaster preparation and recovery must consider all populations in the community. By bringing together natural hazards planning and community planning to consider vulnerabilities, more resilient and equitable communities are achievable. In Planning for Community Resilience the authors describe an inclusive process for creating disaster-resilient communities. This handbook guides any community through the process of determining their level of hazard exposure, physical vulnerability, and social vulnerability with the goal of determining the best planning strategy. This will be an invaluable tool for professionals working to protect their community from disturbance.
