Adult's and children's experiences of disaster, recovery, and lessons for mitigation.
Through effective community and local assessment “post-disaster”, together we can make informed decisions for sustainable redevelopment.
“Build back better, stronger and safer”
PRE & RAPID outlines methods for the effective assessment of community recovery needs (at the local level) in the first few days following the occurrence of a hazardous event.
PRE: a methodology which effectively anticipated community recovery needs and capacities
RAPID: immediate post disaster impact methodology (RAPID)
