Cloud-based disaster recovery (DR) solutions help organisations recover from natural disasters and cyberattacks quickly and affordably. Cloud-based disaster recovery solutions improve recovery times, capital costs, scalability, and security. Yet, data security and DR strategy are still barriers to adoption. Only two issues. Besides these challenges, cloud-based catastrophe recovery looks promising. Cloud-based disaster recovery solutions will continue to grow as cloud technology improves. Hybrid cloud disaster recovery solutions, which integrate public and private cloud environments, will continue to grow in popularity, as will DRaaS, a cost-effective and flexible disaster recovery solution. As cloud-based disaster recovery solutions grow more prevalent, organisations must understand their disaster recovery needs, carefully analyse their cloud service providers' security and compliance procedures, and regularly test and update their disaster recovery plans and solutions. If organisations follow these measures, they may maximise the benefits of cloud-based disaster recovery solutions to safeguard their critical data and apps and ensure business continuity in a disaster.

Disasters occur in the corporate operational environment. Earthquakes, floods, fires, and other unpredictable events that might disrupt company activities are among these calamities. The incidence of disasters in the workplace adds to unfavorable consequences. As a result, the construction of a disaster recovery plan becomes necessary for the firm to manage the bad consequences that may arise as a result of the unfavorable occurrences. With a disaster recovery strategy in place, a firm can sustain and swiftly restart normal operations. The firm's disaster recovery plan is a written document that outlines an efficient strategy for dealing with unforeseen and unmanageable catastrophes. Developing a disaster recovery strategy ensures the organization's survival by responding effectively to the present calamity.

Full textAbstract:
Indonesia is a region that is prone to various types of disasters such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, rain fires, landslides and floods. As a country prone to natural disasters, Indonesia must have a disaster emergency response management with a clear concept of early recovery because Law No. 24 of 2007 and Government Regulation No. 21 of 2008 are not strictly regulated. This study aims to analyze post-disaster early recovery strategies which are the missing link in post-disaster implementation in Indonesia. This study uses a qualitative approach with the Miles & Huberman Interactive Analysis Model research method. 1992, where in this study the data analysis was carried out simultaneously with the data collection process and the flow of analysis followed an interactive analysis model. The results of the study show that the implementation of early disaster recovery in Indonesia does not yet have a clear legal umbrella and generally early recovery options are focused on recovering physical assets and ignoring traumatic recovery. The main activities of early recovery mainly only provide shelters for victims of damaged houses but other actions and activities towards humanitarian recovery have not been carried out optimally.

Banda Aceh, Indonesia, Tohoku cities in Japan and Tacloban, Philippines were all completely destroyed and have recovered or are now recovering from the ocean of debris. Banda Aceh and Tacloban have recovered to a normal state rather quickly within two years or so after the disaster’s occurrence. The Tohoku cities are taking a much longer time and even now, more than 170,000 (March 10, 2016) people are in evacuation houses of various kinds. Such a difference comes from the basic selection of the recovery process, based on the basic policy of reconstruction. Building resilient cities is one of the Sustainable Development Goals with disaster risk reduction targets. In order to build resilient cities, the strategy of building back better, a new focus priority in the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction, plays a key role. As disasters occur everywhere one after another, recovery processes also take place everywhere after each disaster. Building back better is therefore one of the most practical ways of building resilient cities. Quick recovery has many advantages if it extends to building back better toward resilient cities but in almost all cases as experienced in Banda Aceh and Tacloban, once a city is recovered freely, it is extremely difficult to redesign and gradually install resilience into the city formation. On the other hand, slow recovery and waiting time, as experiencing in Tohoku cities, make people suffer, make local economies difficult to recover, and have high national costs. It is difficult to assess how and under what conditions the cost of such investment may be recovered by building resilient cities with long-term safety. The justification for selecting a recovery trajectory depends on the state of the national economy as well as the safety culture of the nation. Yet more important and practical support for building back better is having a pre-disaster recovery plan prepared before a disaster occurs. In fact, regardless of the availability of official pre-disaster plans, the redevelopment and reform efforts to improve communities in normal times will help promote a swift and effective reconstruction when an unexpected disaster occurs. This was experienced in Tokyo after the Great Kanto Earthquake and after World War II, as well as in many cities in Japan.

Abstract In the aftermath of major disasters, the provision of adequate shelter for displaced populations is a critical and complex challenge. This paper examines and compares the transitional settlement strategies implemented following two significant disasters in Indonesia: the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami in Aceh and the 2006 Earthquake in Yogyakarta. Through a detailed analysis of the sociocultural contexts, intervention strategies, and outcomes in both cases, we demonstrate the importance of context-specific approaches to transitional settlements that go beyond mere physical shelter provision. Our findings highlight the crucial roles of leveraging local leadership structures, maintaining community bonds, and integrating livelihood development in the recovery process. The contrasting experiences in Aceh and Yogyakarta underscore the need for adaptive strategies that respect local social dynamics and cultural preferences. This comparative study provides valuable insights for improving disaster preparedness and response mechanisms, particularly in diverse sociocultural settings. Transitional settlement not only serve as an emergency safe place during and aftermath of a disaster, but also a healing place for recovery, and reconstruction. A good strategy in transitional settlement development is an important part of disaster management and could become a significant investment for speedy recovery, and building a better more resilient society.

Abstract Distribution network plays the role of distributing electric energy in the power system, whether it can run normally relates to people’s production and life. In recent years, frequent natural disasters have caused large-scale failures of distribution networks, resulting in the interruption of a large number of load power supply, which has a huge impact on people’s lives and post-disaster recovery work. Therefore, it is very important to formulate scientific and efficient emergency repair strategies. This paper will study the power supply recovery and multi-fault rush repair of distribution network respectively from the two aspects of load grade and the economy of power grid operation, establish mathematical model, and use particle swarm optimization algorithm to solve, so as to provide a more efficient emergency plan for power supply recovery after disaster.

Disaster Prevention and Management: An International Journal 29, no. 6 (2020): 831–47. http://dx.doi.org/10.1108/dpm-01-2020-0005.
Full textAbstract:
PurposeThis paper examines disaster capitalism in Chile, that is, the relationships between disasters and neoliberalism. It looks at two post-disaster dimensions: disasters as windows of opportunity to introduce political reforms and disasters as occasions for the corporate class to capitalize on such disasters.Design/methodology/approachTwo indices, disaster capitalism (DC) and post-disaster private involvement (PDPI), are proposed for cross-case analysis. They are based on legal records, institutional reports and economic data. The DC assesses the introduction of reforms following disasters, while PDPI evaluates the share of public-private funding used for recovery. Both indices are applied here to two disasters in Chile: the 2010 Maule earthquake, and the 2008 Chaitén volcanic eruption.FindingsResults show that the highly neoliberal Chilean context leaves limited space for new neoliberal reforms. Although recovery is implemented predominantly through the private sector, the state still assumes greater responsibility for recovery costs. Results also detect poor levels of participation from the private sector in accounting their efforts and making them publicly available. Likewise, the research suggests that neoliberal reforms become more likely after disasters. However, the preexisting politico-economic context matters. Finally, there is clearly a need for data systematization in post-disaster recovery.Originality/valueIn the Chilean context, the indices proved beneficial as a strategy for data collection and a method for scrutinizing the implications of neoliberal policy implemented in the wake of disasters, as well as in evaluating the role of the corporate class during recovery.

ABSTRACTAlthough increasing evidence suggests that children are at particular risk from disasters and evidence-based practices have been developed to triage and treat them effectively, no strategy or concept of operations linking best practices for disaster response is currently in place. To our knowledge, this report describes the first effort to address this critical gap and outlines a triage-driven children's disaster mental health incident response strategy for seamless preparedness, response, and recovery elements that can be used now. The national children's disaster mental health concept of operations (NCDMH CONOPS) details the essential elements needed for an interoperable, coordinated response for the mental health needs of children by local communities, counties, regions, and states to better meet the needs of children affected by disasters and terrorism incidents. This CONOPS for children proposes the use of an evidence-based, rapid triage system to provide a common data metric to incident response and recovery action and to rationally align limited resources to those at greater need in a population-based approach.(Disaster Med Public Health Preparedness. 2012;6:174–181)

Full textAbstract:
Purpose How can governments and survivors prepare for and manage natural disasters? Post-disaster reconstruction researchers advocate that community involvement is needed to help survivors recover effectively. This study aims to propose that cooperative goals between government officials and survivors develop guanxi relationships and constructive controversy wherein survivors voice their opinions to aid disaster recovery. Design/methodology/approach The authors adopted the critical incident technique (CIT), which has proved especially useful for studying complex issues, as well as site-intensive research for interviews and participant observation. After developing a local reputation and rapport by working in a residential resettlement area for two months, an author used the CIT to ask 118 survivors of the 2008 Sichuan earthquake to describe specific incidents when they interacted with government officials about recovery issues and then to rate survey items that measure independent and dependent variables. Findings Results, including structural equation analyses, support the reasoning that cooperative goals between government and survivors facilitate guanxi and constructive controversy, which in turn produced effective disaster recovery, as indicated by survivors’ social support, satisfaction, reduced stress and beliefs that government officials led effectively. Research limitations/implications The data are self-reported and subject to biases and may not be accurate. Practical implications In addition to developing theoretical understanding, the results can have important practical implications for strengthening relationships and constructive controversy between government and survivors. Social implications Results suggest that communities have practical ways to prepare for disasters. Structuring cooperative goals among survivors, encouraging guanxi relationships, and training in constructive controversy should promote effective recovery from natural disasters. Originality/value The paper develops theory and research on how leaders can promote community involvement for effective disaster management. The paper proposes that high-quality interpersonal relationships, also referred to guanxi, and the open-minded discussion of opposing ideas, labeled constructive controversy, are major components of effective community involvement. The paper adds to the literature by empirically documenting the utility of the Western-developed theory of cooperation and competition and the concept of constructive controversy for understanding the effectiveness of government leadership for disaster recovery in China.

Full textAbstract:
The complexities of post-disaster recovery funding present significant challenges to state and local communities, particularly with the increase in frequency and intensity of disasters triggered by climate change. This paper explores the disaster recovery funding process for which there is limited existing research. A concurrent triangulation method was utilized as the strategy of inquiry. This mixed methods approach consisted of a content review of the related literature, an analysis of the New Jersey (NJ) Transit damage from Hurricane Sandy, a case study examining NJ Transit’s unmet recovery need, and semistructured interviews with related officials. Findings suggest that improved interagency communication is required to better understand funding limitations and develop formal procedures for recovery. Despite progress, extensive gaps in disaster recovery funding remain. The analysis resulted in three key post-disaster recovery coordination findings: (1) there remains a lack of compatibility among the different federal grant programs; (2) there is an identified need for a single point of coordination to enhance the communication process; (3) a solution to recovery funding should include insurance and the private sector. Enhanced coordination mechanisms will result in improved outcomes for jurisdictions recovering from the overwhelming and cascading effects of disasters. These findings have both national and international implications.

Full textAbstract:
In the face of multiple failures caused by extreme disasters, the power and communication sides of the distribution network are interdependent in the fault recovery process. To improve the post-disaster recovery efficiency of the distribution network, this paper proposes a coordinated optimization strategy for distribution network reconfiguration and repair, which integrates the power and communication aspects. First, the recovery process is divided into islanding–reconfiguration and dynamic emergency repair. The coupling relationship between power and communication is considered; that is, power failure may cause communication nodes to lose power, and communication failure may affect the effective operation of remote control devices. Based on this, the fault recovery process is optimized with the objective of maximizing load transfer and direct recovery while introducing a stochastic model predictive control method to handle the uncertainty of distributed power generation by rolling optimization of typical scenarios. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed strategy is verified using an improved IEEE33-node distribution network system. The simulation results show that the proposed method can recover power to the maximum extent and reduce loss while ensuring the safe and stable operation of the distribution system.

Full textAbstract:
As the number and economic impact of disasters rise annually, additional information is required to understand the recovery process. Clearly, any theory of disaster recovery will require the identification of factors that cause vulnerability and resilience, as these can enable or impede successful recovery. The authors performed a content analysis of journal articles from 2000 to 2010 in four disaster-focused journals to identify the factors posited to influence vulnerability and resilience from multiple disciplinary perspectives. Factors were identified in the areas of infrastructural, social, economic, institutional and post-disaster recovery strategy. A panel of experts then validated these factors through a multi-round Delphi survey by rating the level of importance of each factor and providing reasoning on their ratings. All causal factors identified received median ratings of at least important, but not all came to consensus. This paper synthesizes findings related to resilience and vulnerability from many researchers in a variety of fields. This multi-disciplinary perspective may help propel future research to consider the interactions between these multiple factors and empirically examine the link between these factors and community recovery.

Full textAbstract:
The impact of natural disasters on rural areas has recently increased especially in Southern Africa. The main question of importance is on how to effectively improve the livelihood resilience of disaster-affected communities. Instead of just restoring communities to their pre disaster state, the post-disaster recovery phase is now widely seen as an opportunity for regeneration and progress (Khasalamwa 2009). For instance, the term building back better has been used by both the government and aid organizations to describe their post-disaster recovery programming. This approach is based on the notion that the recovery period presents a window of opportunity for long-term vulnerability reduction, disaster risk reduction, and improved development. Régnier et al. (2008) highlights that experience with livelihood recovery projects has been somewhat limited and that successful efforts should be highly localized so that economic and livelihood recovery may become an increasingly important component of the post-disaster recovery process. The links between disaster recovery, resilience and livelihoods are clear, a successful livelihood strategy must incorporate mechanisms for coping and bouncing back when another disaster emerges. Using the sustainable livelihoods approach (DFID 1999, Scoones 2003), this paper seeks to explore the various livelihood options available for disaster-stricken areas in Manicaland province of Zimbabwe. The study design is qualitative and used both primary and secondary data in order to obtain the research objectives. Semi-structured interviews and direct observations were employed for collecting primary data. The study provides tangible homegrown livelihood solutions to humanitarian agencies, local government and civil protection unit. Results show that households are involved in strategies such as livelihood diversification and migration in response to the cyclone Idai.

This study analyzes the strategy of the Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) of Mandailing Natal Regency in managing flood disasters. The focus of this research includes four main stages: mitigation, preparedness, emergency response, and post-disaster recovery. The research method used is qualitative with a case study approach, through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation analysis. The results of the study show that BPBD has implemented various strategies, such as river normalization, embankment construction, community education, the formation of volunteer teams, and the provision of an early warning system. However, constraints such as budget constraints, hard-to-reach geographical conditions, and low community participation hampered the effectiveness of this strategy. In the emergency response phase, BPBD coordinated with various agencies for evacuation and aid distribution, although access to some remote areas was still limited. In the recovery stage, BPBD carries out infrastructure rehabilitation and economic empowerment for affected residents, but this process is also constrained by limited funds. Overall, the BPBD strategy is considered quite comprehensive, but it needs to be strengthened in terms of collaboration between institutions, resource capacity building, and community-based approaches so that flood disaster management is more optimal. This study provides recommendations to improve the effectiveness of flood management strategies in Mandailing Natal.

This paper proposes an effective disaster recovery strategy and load balancing strategy for web systems based on traditional centralized distributed architecture, which are widely used in small and medium-sized enterprises. In the disaster recovery strategy, we have designed a global backup strategy and single node backup strategy to adapt to different system requirements and fault recovery scenarios. In the load balancing strategy, we take the database as the starting point, calculate the load proportion of task execution nodes, effectively determine the load status of each task execution node, and make the load of each task execution node in the distributed system tend to be balanced. The research results of this paper have certain reference value for improving early developed web systems with the same architecture. Future research will focus on optimizing the efficiency of disaster recovery strategies, improving the accuracy of load judgment, and exploring innovative methods to enhance the scalability and stability of web systems based on centralized distributed architecture.

Abstract Extreme rainfall variations generally result in either extreme precipitation accompanied by flood risk events. Globally, flooding has been a major worry, particularly in Malaysia. In recent years, the frequency and magnitude of floods have grown substantially. Severe precipitation has caused significant devastation to human life and property. Exposure, vulnerability, and risk analysis use inventories of elements-at-risk (EaR), also known as assets, to determine who and what is at risk. The recent occurrence that occurred in February and December 2022 were unprecedented and cause RM29.8 million of economic losses in Kelantan. Numerous problems that range from structural, social, environmental, economical to psychological impacts strike over the community in this flood prone area. Almost 230, 424 people and 54, 924 houses were directly impacted by this flood event. The primary objective is to determine the entire amount of a disaster’s effect on a nation and based on these findings, to develop an executable and sustainable Recovery Plan for mobilising financial and technical resources. The methodology and procedure for a full evaluation of damages, losses, and requirements, leading to the establishment of a Recovery Strategy. Assessment and Recovery Strategy produced during the PDNA is a necessity as it is a more thorough recovery planning, especially in the event of large-scale disasters. Mapping the impact of the flood catastrophe and gathering all information related to the communities to get back to their daily lives a comprehensive assessment is imperative. With these building back better is feasible for this exposed community. The PDNA analyses disaster consequences and implications. It uses analytical approaches, tools, and strategies for post-disaster evaluations and recovery planning to ensure comparability and uniformity. It provides complete picture of the post-disaster situations highlighting the various requirements and goals of different sectors, social groups, and sub-groups.

Full textAbstract:
Community-led disaster risk management is a method that stresses community participation and involvement in disaster prevention, response and recovery. This approach acknowledges that communities possess unique knowledge, resources and capacities that can be used to improve disaster management. Community-led disaster risk management, which involves communities in decision-making processes and provides them with the appropriate tools and training, can improve local resilience and the overall efficacy of disaster response and recovery activities. This approach also recognizes the need to address social, economic and environmental issues that contribute to vulnerability and increase the risk of disaster. Community-led disaster risk management, sometimes known as the "bottom-up approach," brings together local community skills to effectively address and mitigate disaster risks. This method improves local resilience and increases overall disaster response and recovery efforts by actively engaging communities in decision-making processes and providing them with the appropriate tools and training. Furthermore, by addressing social, economic and environmental elements that contribute to vulnerability, community-led disaster risk management helps to reduce the risk of disasters. This bottom-up strategy enables communities to take proactive steps toward catastrophe preparedness, response and recovery, resulting in more sustainable and resilient communities. Previous studies have highlighted that involving communities in policy development and decision-making processes enhances sustainability, resilience and local engagement in policy implementation. As shown in many cases, local stakeholders including Government agencies at the national, state and local levels, local champions and leaders, as well as non-governmental organizations (NGOs), often collaborate closely to develop comprehensive and effective disaster management plans.

Full textAbstract:
Natural disasters not only cause physical damage but also significantly impact the psychological well-being of victims. This is evident in Aek Natas District, Labuhanbatu Utara Regency, North Sumatra Province, where flash floods have resulted in both material and psychological losses. Unlike material losses, which people can recover through various efforts, psychological trauma is more challenging to address. A key figure in this context is the kiai or Tuan Guru. This study aims to examine the role of the kiai or Tuan Guru in restoring the psychological well-being of disaster victims in Aek Natas District, Labuhanbatu Utara Regency, North Sumatra Province. The research uses a qualitative approach. Data collection techniques include observing Tuan Guru's activities, conducting direct interviews with Tuan Guru Syeikh H. Syamsuddin Hasibuan, a local spiritual leader, and interviewing community members affected by the disaster. Additional data come from documents and records related to the disaster, which provide further context to the interview and observation results. The study finds that natural disasters cause psychological damage, such as trauma. Addressing the psychological needs of disaster victims, the role of Tuan Guru proves crucial. Tuan Guru H. Syamsuddin Hasibuan contributes to the psychological recovery of disaster victims in Aek Natas by offering spiritual guidance, providing emotional support through counseling, building community, and delivering training and education. The main contribution of this research is developing and implementing a community-based approach that integrates social support, education, and practical training as a holistic and adaptive strategy for psychological recovery.

Abstract This study investigates the resilience of the integrated energy system encompassing electricity, heat, and gas in the context of extreme natural disasters. Through a comprehensive analysis of historical natural disaster events and an in-depth examination of various influencing factors, the research proposes a robust evaluation index system for energy system resilience, along with a corresponding optimization method for fault recovery. Building on this foundation, the impact of natural disasters on the integrated energy system is simulated using a network grid approach. Furthermore, a resilience assessment method for the integrated energy system is introduced, which is based on the Markov state transition model. Resilience indicators are calculated through Monte Carlo simulations to quantitatively assess the extent of system damage during disasters. Additionally, a minimum cut-load model of the integrated energy system is developed to enhance the fault recovery process. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed fault recovery optimization method is validated through the E39-G20-H6 test system.

Purpose Natural disasters not only cause dilapidated buildings and damaged infrastructure but also delay crucial aid for those affected in the event of a disaster and post-disaster recovery. An institutionally well-managed post-disaster housing strategy provides opportunities for physical and mental healing of its occupant. The time requires occupiers to remain in the temporary housing varies with circumstances. This paper aims to review post-disaster housing scenarios in India in comparison to two Asian cases from Indonesia and Japan. The study focuses on understanding Indian post-disaster housing strategies through a comparative review. Design/methodology/approach The research selects coastal cities of Tamil Nadu state, where the post-disaster temporary shelter and rehabilitation was planned and implemented after the Tsunami in 2004. The Tsunami created havoc in Nagapattinam and Kanyakumari district of Tamil Nadu. Nagapattinam district reported 6,051 fatalities and many more homeless people. After the Tsunami, the government took measures to supply safe, secured and on-site shelter provisions. Surprisingly, many such shelters were never occupied. In many instances, people actually preferred to spend years in a temporary shelter rather occupying government housing. This paper evaluates such events and investigates India’s post-disaster shelter strategy against the derived best practices. This study is based on the sequential/logical reasoning and understanding of the facts. Discussions and findings from this study can be further generalised into a comprehensive policy discussion. Findings The paper finds that the manner of planning and design of post-disaster housing programmes influence medium- to long-term recovery of its occupant. A certain element of trade-off between implementation and quality of habitation results into compromises to achieving the desired outcome. When faced with socio-political, economic and financial constraints, the decision-makers are required to make trade-offs in deciding the manner and quantum of allocating resources. Coordination among these agencies is troublesome. It is true for all countries and there is no distinct answer to it. Public consultation and community participation in long-term rehabilitation are crucial to meet the aspiration of the local people. Originality/value The paper contributes in discussing a comparison of post-disaster housing rehabilitation between India and the two cases from Indonesia and Japan. As a review paper, the objective is to highlight the synthesis and overall understanding of post-disaster housing strategies from two cases and compare it with India.

Full textAbstract:
Disaster recovery (DR) is a critical component of ensuring business continuity, especially for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) that rely heavily on cloud platforms for their operations. SMEs face unique challenges, including limited financial and technical resources, making it essential to develop a disaster recovery framework that is both cost-effective and robust. This proposes a disaster recovery framework that minimizes downtime and data loss, leveraging the capabilities of cloud platforms to ensure continuous business operations. The proposed framework focuses on three key objectives viz reducing Recovery Point Objectives (RPO), minimizing Recovery Time Objectives (RTO), and ensuring scalability. RPO refers to the amount of data that can be lost before causing significant harm to the business, while RTO measures the time it takes to restore operations after a disaster. The framework achieves these objectives through cloud-based replication and automated backup systems. Data replication across geographically distributed data centers ensures that a copy of the data is always available, while incremental backups reduce the potential for data loss, ensuring that SMEs can recover recent transactions and information with minimal disruption. Automation plays a central role in the disaster recovery process. Using tools like AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery or Azure Site Recovery, SMEs can implement automated failover procedures that trigger in the event of an outage. This automation significantly reduces manual intervention, decreasing the likelihood of human error while improving recovery speed. Furthermore, periodic testing of disaster recovery plans is incorporated to ensure preparedness, with simulations identifying any vulnerabilities in the DR strategy. By using a pay-as-you-go model for cloud resources, SMEs can scale their disaster recovery solutions as their operations grow, optimizing costs while maintaining flexibility. This framework provides a comprehensive, affordable solution for SMEs to safeguard their business continuity, protecting them from the potentially devastating impacts of data loss and downtime.

Purpose – This paper aims to propose an alternative strategy for preparing, recovering and conserving cultural built heritage (CBH) in the context of natural disasters. It presents the idea that disaster preparedness is integral to CBH protection and conservation. Design/methodology/approach – Building upon a review of existing scholarship on CBH, resilience and disaster management, a conceptual model is proposed to assist key stakeholders preparing for the recovery of CBH after natural disasters. It is argued that the protection and recovery of CBH in the wake of natural disasters require a holistic approach and that the theoretical framework of resilience thinking can support such an approach. Findings – The paper discusses how the process of adaptive cycles has a role to play in the development of a holistic understanding of the conservation process. It proposes an adaptive cycle model that is supported by four critical factors: reordering, conserving, shifting and transforming. Originality/value – Through exploration of systems thinking and resilience theory, the research presented in this paper explores a new approach to the conceptualisation of CBH. The paper presents the first stage of a research project that aims to develop strategies that can support the protection and recovery of CBH in the wake of natural disasters. The proposed model represents a holistic approach for reconceptualising CBH and may, as such, have potential implications that extend from the field of post-disaster recovery into the domain of CBH conservation and protection.

Abstract Indonesia, highly vulnerable to geophysical and hydro-meteorological hazards, has experienced over 20,000 disasters in the past two decades, resulting in annual losses averaging Rp 20 trillion. The devastating 2018 Sulawesi Tengah earthquake alone caused economic losses of Rp 14 trillion, and the COVID-19 pandemic further led to a staggering budget deficit of Rp 1 quadrillion over two years. In response, the Indonesian government introduced the Disaster Risk Financing and Insurance (DRFI) strategy to strengthen disaster financing and reduce pressure on the national budget. This study employs a descriptive-qualitative approach to thoroughly examine the implementation processes and dynamics of the DRFI strategy, assessing its effectiveness in managing disasters. By identifying successes, challenges, and opportunities for improvement, this research seeks to provide valuable insights for enhancing future DRFI implementations. These findings not only stand to benefit Indonesia but also offer crucial guidance for other developing countries striving for better recovery and resilience against growing disaster risks.

Full textAbstract:
Despite the ascendancy of the concept of resilience in political sociology, its criticism has also expanded. In both theory and practice, this paper seeks to unpack and critically explore how resilience as embedded neoliberal governmentality permeates U.S. research in issues relating to natural environmental disasters. By highlighting the neoliberal (resilient) politics of recovery situated in two environmental disasters – Hurricane Katrina and Hurricane Harvey – this paper highlights that both pre-disaster and post-disaster recovery realities contrast starkly with the “high-minded” claims of resilience being a form of “emancipatory” resistance. Rather than being identified as natural disasters, both hurricanes are identified as voluntary failures revealing how resilience discourse was used to masquerade opportunity, subjugation, exploitation, and capital accumulation by privatepublic/state-nonstate actors. Both hurricane responses highlight that resilience embedded with a laissez-faire logic privileged types of solutions that directly hindered affected communities “bouncing back”. The third and final sections analyze an alternative conceptualization of resilience pioneered in Cuba which the United Nations International Strategy for Disaster Reduction (UNISDR) and the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) encouraged risk-reduction experts to emulate as a way forward in responding to natural environmental disasters.

Full textAbstract:
The number of reported natural disasters has increased steadily over the past century and risen very sharply during the past decade. These bring about the loss of lives, property, employment and damage to the physical infrastructure and the environment. Disaster management efforts aim to reduce or avoid the potential losses from hazards, assure prompt and appropriate assistance to victims of disaster, and achieve rapid and effective recovery. While knowledge management can enhance the process of disaster management, there is a perceived gap in information coordination and sharing within the context of disaster management. Identifying key success factors will be an enabler to manage the disasters successfully. In this context, this study aims to identify and map key knowledge success factors for managing disasters successfully through capturing the good practices and lessons learned. The objective of this paper is to present the literature findings on factors which support successful disaster management. Accordingly the identified factors were classified into eight main categories as technological, social, legal, environmental, economic, functional, institutional and political.

Full textAbstract:
The international recovery system responds differently to disasters with similar characteristics. It answers to specific motivations that are not necessarily connected to the nature of the disaster. The variability of the answers given not only depends on the type of disaster but also, in particular, on the local social structure and on the transcalar narrative of the disaster used to move communities not directly affected to action. This paper therefore analyses the level of Western involvement in two Asian tsunami recovery plans and the role of the media in attracting Western private donations. To this end, Italian involvement in the two cases is discussed. Beginning with a literature review to support the argument that the media are crucial in stimulating private participation through ‘spectacularizing’ the disaster, this paper illustrates that, when spectacularization is insufficient, the media additionally adopts the strategy of ‘transposition’, leading to ‘appropriation’ of the event. In particular, during the Boxing Day tsunami of 2004, the transposition became the ‘Westernization’ of the narrative of the disaster. The process of transposition or Westernization, however, did not happen with the same modalities in the narrative of the Tohoku tsunami of 2011. In this case, the focus was more on the technological disaster that followed the natural disaster. The author concludes that emotional transposition of the disasters by the media played an important role in stimulating private donations and in spurring governmental relief in both the disasters. Foreign governments, however, are mainly moved by other factors such as ‘flag policy’ or what Olsen et al. (2004) identified as the concept of ‘donor interests’.

Full textAbstract:
New media and social media have changed the frame of communication that appears quickly, is interactive, and has no geographical boundaries. The media plays an essential role in disseminating accurate and responsible information in a disaster situation. The strategy of using communication media will reduce the impacts arising from disasters in the mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery phases. Through a literature review, the author presents disaster communication, strategies, and using media in disasters. The research use case studies are the natural disaster of Mount Merapi and the Covid-19 pandemic to represent non-natural disasters. The results of the analysis show that sensitivity to the situation is an adequate response in a disaster. Furthermore, new media and social media tend to be sufficient as the primary source of information for the public, coordination, and fundraising. The effectiveness of media use in the Merapi disaster is the beginning of new media and social media in disaster communication in Indonesia. This media is also used in disaster management during the COVID-19 pandemic. The use of media in both case studies is considered adequate to reduce the negative impacts arising from the disaster. It is hoped this idea will contribute to disaster communication studies.

Full textAbstract:
Based on complex networks and resilience theory, the structural characteristics and post-disaster performance recovery process of the urban metro network are studied to determine the best repair strategy for metro network performance under different scenarios. Specifically: (1) The space-L method is used to model the Hangzhou metro network, and MATLAB software is used to calculate the characteristic parameter values of the Hangzhou metro network structure; (2) A model of the post-disaster resilience of the Hangzhou metro network was constructed, and network efficiency was used as the evaluation index of the resilience level and resilience of the metro network; (3) The performance recovery process of the metro network under different scenarios was simulated and the optimal recovery strategy of the post-disaster metro network was obtained. The results show that the degree values of the Hangzhou metro network nodes are all generally low; the average passage path between nodes is long and the nodes are scattered, which makes the convenience of residents’ travel low. In addition, the degree index and the betweenness have some influence on the recovery order of the failed nodes. Finally, the genetic algorithm solves the post-disaster optimal recovery strategy of the metro network with good results.

The objective of this study is to investigate life asset condition and household life recovery strategy after and before earthquakes in Tandikek, Padang Pariaman District. Livelihood index assessment is used to describe livelihood asset changes before and after the earthquake. A descriptive analysis is employed to describe life recovery strategy that is used by households in various level and phase of house damages. The result of the study shows that change in household life asset after the earthquake has U pattern, meaning that condition of assets for all indicators decreased during emergency and recovery phases. This condition, however, increased after recovery phase up to the present time. The condition is even better than that prior to the earthquake. This also means that all recovery efforts have successfully developed people’s life assets that guarantee their life after the earthquake. The livelihood recovery strategy used by households in Tandikek to maintain and recover their livelihood varies according to the level and phase of the house damage. The households that take independent livelihood strategy, either in active or passive way, networking strategy and utilization of disaster aids from various sources appear to recover faster than those who only take one strategy.

Full textAbstract:
To reduce unforeseen disaster risks, infrastructure systems are expected to be resilient. The impact of many natural disasters on networked infrastructures is often observed to follow a localized attack pattern. The localized attack can be demonstrated by the failures of a group of links concentrated in a particular geographical domain which result in adjacent isolated nodes. In this paper, a resilience-based recovery assessment framework is proposed. The framework aims to find the most effective recovery strategy when subjected to localized attacks. The proposed framework was implemented in a lattice network structure inspired by a water distribution network case study. Three different recovery strategies were studied with cost and time constraints incorporated: preferential recovery based on nodal weight (PRNW), periphery recovery (PR), and localized recovery (LR). The case study results indicated that LR could be selected as the most resilient and cost-effective recovery strategy. This paper hopes to aid in the decision-making process by providing a strategic baseline for finding an optimized recovery strategy for localized attack scenarios.

Resilience could be based on the solution to the question: "What is the maximum amount of destruction, if any, that the graph (a network) can sustain while ensuring that at least one of each technology type remains and that the remaining induced subgraph is properly colored?" The concept of a graph's Chromatic Core Subgraph is a solution to the stated problem. In this paper, the pandemic graphs and certain sequential graphs are developed. For these graphs, the Chromatic core subgraph is obtained. The results of the pandemic graphs' Chromatic core subgraph are used to develop a disaster recovery strategy for the COVID-19 pandemic.

For these graphs, the Chromatic core subgraph is obtained. The results of the pandemic graphs' Chromatic core subgraph are used to develop a disaster recovery strategy for the COVID-19 pandemic.

"Climate Change-Related Disaster Risk Mitigation through Innovative Insurance Mechanism: A System Dynamics Model Application for a Case Study in Latvia."

Full textAbstract:
This study explores how the System Dynamics modeling approach can help deal with the problem of conventional insurance mechanisms by studying the feedback loops governing complex systems connected to the disaster insurance mechanism. Instead of addressing the disaster’s underlying risk, the traditional disaster insurance strategy largely focuses on providing financial security for asset recovery after a disaster. This constraint becomes especially concerning as the threat of climate-related disasters grows since it may result in rising long-term damage expenditures. A new insurance mechanism is suggested as a solution to this problem to lower damage costs while safeguarding insured assets and luring new assets to be protected. A local case study utilizing a System Dynamics stock and flow model is created and validated by examining the model’s structure, sensitivity analysis, and extreme value test. The results of the case study performed on a city in Latvia highlight the significance of effective disaster risk reduction strategies applied within the innovative insurance mechanism in lowering overall disaster costs. The logical coherence seen throughout the analysis of simulated scenario results strengthens the established model’s plausibility. The case study’s findings support the innovative insurance mechanism’s dynamic hypothesis and show the main influencing factors on the dynamics within the proposed innovative insurance mechanism. The information this study can help insurance firms, policy planners, and disaster risk managers make decisions that will benefit local communities and other stakeholders regarding climate-related disaster risk mitigation.

Full textAbstract:
With the increasing frequency of extreme weather events such as heavy rainstorm disasters, the stable operation of power systems is facing significant challenges. This paper proposes a two-stage restoration strategy for the distribution networks (DNs). First, a grid-based modeling approach is developed for urban DNs and transportation networks (TNs), capturing the dynamic evolution of heavy rainstorm disasters and more accurately modeling the impact on TNs and DNs. Then, a two-stage restoration strategy is designed for the DN by coordinating soft open points (SOPs) and mobile energy storage systems (MESSs). In the disaster progression stage, SOPs are utilized to enable the flexible reconfiguration and islanding of the DN, minimizing load loss. In the post-disaster recovery stage, the MESS and repair crew are optimally dispatched, taking into account the state of the TN to expedite power restoration. Finally, the experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method reduces load loss during restoration by 8.09% compared to approaches without precise TN and DN modeling.

Full textAbstract:
A fundamental component of cloud architecture, disaster recovery (DR) guarantees business continuity in the event of failures. Based on Recovery Time Objective (RTO), Recovery Point Objective (RPO), cost, and complexity, this review looks at AWS disaster recovery techniques—from Backup and Restore to Multi-Site Active/Active. While Pilot Light and Warm Standby balance cost and recovery speed by retaining either minimum or reduced infrastructure, Backup and Restore offers a sluggish but reasonably priced recovery choice. Multi-Site Active/Active guarantees almost instantaneous failover but requires large operational overhead and financial outlay. Implementation of DR solutions depends much on AWS products such AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery, Amazon S3, AWS Cloud Formation, and Amazon Route 53. Key best practices to maximize DR impact are automation, testing, and monitoring. Smooth failover and restoration depend on addressing issues such data synchronization, network configuration, and application dependencies. Comparative study shows that an organization's tolerance for downtime, financial restrictions, and compliance needs determines its ideal DR strategy. While those wanting faster recovery can choose Pilot Light or Warm Standby, cost-sensitive companies can depend on Backup and Restore. Despite their great expense and complexity, Multi-Site Active/Active helps mission-critical systems needing highest availability. Resilience and efficiency will be improved by future trends in AWS DR including increased multi-region replication, serverless failover, and AI-driven automation. Organizations may reduce risk, guarantee data integrity, and accomplish flawless recovery in disaster situations by implementing a clearly defined, scalable, tested DR strategy.
