| description |
Nearly half of East Asia population
lives in cities and the region is urbanizing so rapidly that
built up areas are projected to increase faster here than in
any other region in the next twenty years. Still, more than
half of slum dwellers around the world live in East Asia.
These are the people most vulnerable to disaster impacts.
Given that Asia accounted for more than a third of the
number of all reported disasters in 2010, and that natural
disasters have quadrupled in the region during the past
twenty years the fastest rate of increase of any region in
the world managing urban growth for resilience is
increasingly important. And yet, many cities do not have
master plans to guide their projected growth, let alone
tools for risk sensitive land use planning. The impetus for
action will come from accessible tools that allow local
policymakers to first minimize risk today and then think
about addressing future risk. This methodology report
describes the underlying risk components, including a
description of the models required inputs related to
metropolitan elements at risk, hazard sub-indices for
thirteen hazard types and thirty parameters of physical,
socioeconomic, and institutional vulnerability. In addition
to this report, three city reports present results that can
be used by a variety of users from those interested in the
overall city wide risk from all natural hazards to those
interested in more disaggregated information. |
