  10. WHAT IS A DISASTER? Types of Disasters: Natural Man-Made/ Accidental Man-Made/ Deliberate

  11. Evolving Role of Government 20th Century -- Marginal role during the first half which grew gradually over the last half • Response and recovery conducted by disaster victims, neighbors, religious groups, and civic communities • Little or no emphasis on mitigation, prevention, or preparedness 21st Century – Increasingly heavily involved • Term “Comprehensive Emergency Management” coined • Emergency Management becomes a quintessential government service • Increasing emphasis on mitigation and prevention

  12. Advantages of Preparedness Planning • Better Planning Leads to Better Outcomes • Muddling Through: more suffering, hardship loss of life and property • With more complex and costly disaster events in the 21st Century, government alone does not have the resources.
