This is relevant at all levels of formal and informal education, being driven by real demand for disaster reduction and sustainable development. Disaster education can be highly developmental in that many varied disciplines contribute, encouraging adaptive capacity for a wide range of risk reduction and emergency response issues. This presentation slot provides opportunity for reflection on what the future of disaster education could or should look like. It is premised that disaster education futures will significantly grapple with many of the disaster communication experiences and ideas considered during this ZiF study year. Key aspects include disaster education orientations variously from secondary sources, experiential learning, and from influences not necessarily possible to precisely fra...

Personal and corporate culture mediates how people may become more vulnerable or resilient to hazard exposure. Societies that strengthen themselves, or are strengthened, mitigate decline and resultant further exposure to what are largely human induced risks of environmental, social and economic degradation. This book outlines why it is important to explore in more depth the relationships between environmental hazards, risk and disasters in society. It presents challenges presented by mainstream and non-mainstream approaches to the human side of disaster studies. By hazard categories this book includes critical processes and outcomes that significantly disrupt human wellbeing over brief or long time-frames. Whilst hazards, risks and disasters impact society, individuals, groups, institutions and organisations offset the effe...

A more integrated Disaster and Conflict Risk Reduction (DCRR) framework provides conceptual advances for better understanding, assessment, management and governance of risk and sustainability. This synthesis for sustainability and peace emphasises early warning, rights based and resilience perspectives that build cross-cutting theoretical, policy and practice imperatives in advancing DCRR. Derived DCRR systematics include (i) building up earlier human well-being that offsets negative risk, (ii) living better with uncertainty and (iii) overcoming political, behavioural and technical barriers in disaster and conflict risk transitioning.
