Why Urban…Developing Countries &…..
Small & Medium Sized Cities• Unprecedented Population Growth* (UNDESA)• Development World Centric Expansion* (UN
2014)• Small and Medium Sized City Accumulation*
(IFRC 2010-WDR)• Haphazard Urbanization Key Driver for
Disaster Losses* (IPCC 2012) • Nearly A billion Slums live in Informal
Settlements
* See Notes
Recent Urban Disasters- Haiti, Pakistan, Nepal
& so on..

& Standards

What Makes Urban Different ???• Demography- Population Density (More population more to respond)- Mobility (Mobile Population)- Assessment Difficulties (Beneficiary Identification)
• Socio-Economy- Income Disparities/Informal settlements- Limited Interconnectedness (Individualistic): Community
Mobilization Dynamics- Land Ownership and Rented Status- Violence- Cash and Market- Skills and Capacities- Food Dependency (Limited or No food production)
• Physical Development- Buildings and Infrastructures (More Infras more to
respond and recover)- Congestion
• Political - Access to Power (Proximate Government)- Multiple Actors/Interests
• Environmental - Natural Resources- Pollution
• Technology- Means of Technology- Access to Information & Communication
VulnerabilitiesHazardsOpportunities

It is just a myth that the size and speed at which a city grows that determines environmental problems but the quality of its governance (WDR, 2010).
Appropriate Planning & Management can convert these chaotic urbanization into liveable cities
Leveraging urbanization for structural transformation (Habitat III-NUA)
I would rather say ‘Leveraging urbanization for systemic transformation’

Traditional Urban Planning Process: Actually Contemporary
Limited Expert Judgement
Limited Assessments
and Study
More Reactive Less Proactive
Isolated Planning - Less Integrated : Separate Theme
Isolated Approach
Less Participatory: Extreme
Supply/Demand Driven Physical Development Focused: Less
Considers Environmental Sustainability and Social Equity
even Economic Prosperity

Differing Urban Priorities
DRRM is Still an Isolated/Missing Theme
![Page 15: Urban Planning and Disaster](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062522/58773fa71a28ab342e8b6681/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

In Such….How to Respond Urban Disaster in Most Efficient Way !!!
Rules Yet to be Drafted
Existing Development Planning Approach
Are they efficient enough?
Are we getting most out of it?
Does it considers development as a
‘System’?Existing DRRM Approach
Are they efficient enough?
Are we getting most out of it?
Are there some other way making it
effective, accessible, affordable and
efficient?

Revisiting our Paradigm…
Considering complex interactions between urban ecology, urban disaster risk and physical development of the city.
![Page 17: Urban Planning and Disaster](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062522/58773fa71a28ab342e8b6681/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
17
Because…..
• We are seeing, in effect, the urbanization of disasters and disaster risk (WDR 2010).
• Urban resilience should not only be limited to disaster risk reduction, adaptation and management (CCA) as an isolated theme but could be made part of regular urban development throughout the whole project cycle.
Economic Opportunities
Environmental Externalities
Ecological Imbalance
Mismanagement
Inadequately Planned
Urbanization
Vulnerabilities to Natural Disaster
Addressing the Impact not the root

How it Can Work
DRR• Interdepartmental DRR
Mainstreaming • Integrated Approach
(Integrating DRR considerations in Development) • Systemic Consideration
(Recharge pond shouldn’t instigate erosion)
Preparedness• Assumptions• Standards• Operating Procedures
Response• Mobilization• Assessments• Targeting• Communication &
Coordination• M&E• Linkages to
Development
Rethinking…….

….. And Development
Reinvigorating The way we plan, finance, develop, govern, and manage cities and human settlements
(Habitat III-NUA)• Plan-Integrated/Holistic• Finance- !!! May be Partnership & Collaboration• Governance: Community Centred (Sang Sangai in Nepal)
