<abstract> <p>The appropriateness of branding certain disaster events as a natural disaster continues to be academically debated, given that few disasters are solely the result of uncontrollable forces of nature, and are instead anthropogenic in their creation, or exacerbated by the relationship humans have with actual and potential hazards. Therefore, this socially constructed nature of disasters also makes groups that are marginalized within society, such as queer people, more vulnerable to these disasters.

Abstract:
After natural disasters such as earthquake, flood, hurricane; because of damage to telephone and internet networks and instantaneous traffic density created by subscribers, voice and data networks lose their functions to a large extent. Service providers make many practices to prevent service interruptions in communication networks and not to disrupt the operation of the protocols used during and after a natural disaster. Since natural disasters are non-repeatable and unpredictable, these measures cannot be carried out with comprehensive assessments. In this context, simulation software is the

Abstract:
Emergency situation awareness during sudden natural disasters presents significant challenges. Traditional methods, characterized by low spatial and temporal resolution as well as coarse granularity, often fail to comprehensively capture disaster situations. However, social media platforms, as a vital source of social sensing, offer significant potential to supplement disaster situational awareness.

The first one deals with the vulnerability assessment, while the second one focuses on the decision aiding process to be implemented for the assessed vulnerability reducing.

The use of monitoring systems for risk areas has increased significantly, especially with the use of IoT applications, which has driven Early Warning Systems (EWS). However, risk situations due to natural disasters can cause malfunction of communication networks making such monitoring unfeasible. In this paper we propose an unorthodox method for disaster detection, based on sliced network traffic monitoring. In the presented system the network traffic is monitored by a Monitoring Agent module that uses a Random Forests method to identify anomalous network traffic events. Simulation results sho

Abstract:
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is a concept, which is broadly determined as ensuring the efficacy of the organisation in integrating social and environmental considerations into organisational operations. In Sri Lankan context, a great enthusiasm can be seen among organisations to engage in CSR initiatives. Having considered the importance and impact, the study aims to investigate the importance of CSR initiatives by construction organisations in disasters in Sri Lanka. Thus, a mixed method research approach was followed as the methodology of this study. Findings are based on semi-struc

Abstract:
This study focuses on disaster impacts and recovery in Tamil Nadu, drawing on insights from Chennai city and Nagapattinam district. The research is part of a larger three-year project called “Recovery with Dignity”, which examines the experiences of recovery in post-disaster situations across three states in India – Odisha, Tamil Nadu, and Kerala – and explores how recovery processes represent vulnerable populations. In this report, we focus on three key disasters in Tamil Nadu: the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami, the 2015 South India flood, and the 2018 Cyclone Gaja. Through these events, we exami

The Caribbean Water Study describes the operational and financial performance of selected water utilities in the Caribbean as reported by the utilities as well as secodary sources, the situation of non-revenue water (NRW) among these utilities, the financial impact of COVID-19 on the utilites, and the issue of their resilience to natural disasters. Benchmarking of the key performance indicators for water utilities in the Caribbean shows how utilities are performing in relation to their peers across time.

Abstract:
Conflicts, natural disasters, and epidemics derail the lives of children. Without access to education, they risk losing their futures. Education is consistently cited as top priority for parents and children in crises, yet it is often the first service lost and last restored during emergencies. Education in emergencies requires quick response and attention to the immediate needs of the learners in crisis situations.

Abstract:
Evacuations are the preferred response to human- or natural-caused disasters. The process often involves people deciding when and how to evacuate based on messages from local authorities. However, diverse opinions of the affected people may influence their decision to evacuate or to stay and see how the situation unfolds. This project applies an opinion dynamics concept to model the opinion and decision-making of people threatened by wildfire. To demonstrate how individual opinions evolve with time, the model applies an agent-based approach that includes the interaction between an agency sendi

Abstract:
Many wildlife management situations require the disposal of animal carcasses. These can include the lethal removal of wildlife to resolve damage or conflicts, as well as clean-up after mortalities caused by vehicle collisions, disease, oil spills or other natural disasters. Carcasses must be disposed of properly to protect public sensitivities, the environment, and public health. Improper disposal of carcasses can result in public outrage, site contamination, injury to animals and people, and the attraction of other animals that may lead to wildlife damage issues.

This rapid literature review summarises evidence and key lessons that exist regarding previous refugee and mixed migration displacement from Afghanistan to surrounding countries. The review identified a diverse literature that explored past refugee and mixed migration, with a range of quantitative and qualitative studies identified. A complex and fluid picture is presented with waves of mixed migration (both outflow and inflow) associated with key events including the: Soviet–Afghan War (1979–1989); Afghan Civil War (1992–96); Taliban Rule (1996–2001); War in Afghanistan (2001–2021).
