Disaster RecoveryRecovery
“... focuses on how best to restore the capacity of the government and communities to rebuild and recover from crisis and to prevent relapses.
In so doing, recovery seeks not only to catalyze sustainable development activities, but also to build upon earlier humanitarian programs to ensure that their inputs become assets for development.”
(source: United Nations Development Program 2001)

lessons learned from experience, including gaps in health system
demonstration and opportunities for training needs
reconstruction but “build back better”
social pressure and political will to reduce risk and enhance capacity

From Response to Recovery and Reconstruction
If there is no clear cut boundary between responses and recovery
processes… this means:
Don’t wait, think ahead!
Build on the momentum of response to anticipate longer-term
recovery and reconstruction.

The ability of a system, community or society exposed to hazards to resist, absorb, accommodate to and recover from the effects of a hazard in a timely and efficient manner, including through the preservation and restoration of its essential structures and functions
ability to spring back from the impacts of disaster

Resilience
First National Course on Public Health Emergency Management 12 – 23 March 2011. Muscat, Oman
Resilience of a community in respect to potential hazard events is determined by the degree to which the community has the necessary resources and is capable of organizing itself both to and during times of need

Q & A
First National Course on Public Health Emergency Management 12 – 23 March 2011. Muscat, Oman
Can you share us your concept of a Disaster Resilient Community based on the definition given?
Differentiate Resilience from Capacity.
![Page 19: Recovery and Transition: Building Resilient Community First National Course on Public Health Emergency Management 12 – 23 March 2011. Muscat, Oman](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649da25503460f94a8f19e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Resilient Community
First National Course on Public Health Emergency Management 12 – 23 March 2011. Muscat, Oman
A resilient community has the capacity to:
absorb stress or destructive forces trough resistance or adaptation
manage or maintain certain basic functions and structures during disasters
recover or bounce back after and event
![Page 20: Recovery and Transition: Building Resilient Community First National Course on Public Health Emergency Management 12 – 23 March 2011. Muscat, Oman](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649da25503460f94a8f19e/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Resilience vs. Capacity
First National Course on Public Health Emergency Management 12 – 23 March 2011. Muscat, Oman
Resilience is generally seen as a broader concept than capacity because it goes beyond the specific behavior, strategies and measures for risk reduction and management that are normally understood as capacities
though in everyday usage, capacity and coping capacity often mean the same as resilience
focus of resilience – what communities can do for themselves and how to strengthen their capacities rather than concentrating on their vulnerability to disaster or their needs in an emergency
