| description |
Public facilities and infrastructure can
be built in such a way as to reduce disaster risks and serve
as disaster risk management facilities. Roads, expressways,
and other public facilities helped reduce damage and loss in
the Great East Japan Earthquake (GEJE) by providing
protection against flooding and by serving as evacuation
routes and base stations for emergency operations.
Organizations for disaster management and other public
sector organizations should coordinate to ensure that their
public works are multifunctional whenever possible; and
cost-sharing mechanism should be developed to ensure that
the financial burden is shared equitably. This report gives
findings; lessons; and recommendations for developing countries. |
