Synopsis
Disaster Mitigation examines the reasons for vulnerability to disaster and asks why poor people suffer most when disaster strikes. The author argues that when disaster-mitigation measures are carried out by community organisations, they are not only more effective, but can lead to a permanent reduction in vulnerability.
