Disaster Risk Management for Sustainable Development : The Role of Justice and Temporality
This thesis investigates how disaster risk management can contribute to sustainable development through the consideration of justice and temporality. Sustainable development is the normative evolvement of society towards more wellbeing. Disaster risk management, defined as all the proactive and reactive strategies that are implemented to deal with disasters and disaster risks, can impact sustainable development in several ways. Notably, disasters are intrinsically unfair while sustainable development requires just processes, which makes justice considerations essential for disaster risk management to contribute to sustainable development. To address the many dimensions of sustainable development, justice considerations must encompass social, ecological, spatial, and temporal justice. After developing a conceptual framework addressing those issues, this thesis focuses on temporal justice because it is identified as a gap in flood risk management research and practice. This thesis is a compilation of four papers. The first one reviews scientific literature about flood risk management to understand why and how justice is considered in this field. The second paper develops the risk justice framework and uses it to analyze international guidelines for disaster risk management. The third one investigates time horizons included in disaster risk management evaluation and the determinants that explain if they are expanded or narrowed. The fourth paper is a case study of the temporal strategies implemented at two governance levels to strengthen disaster resilience following the 2021 flood events in the Vesdre river basin (Wallonia, Belgium). This thesis also discusses the role of evaluation and integrated management to improve policy-making in disaster risk management. ; This thesis connects the perpetual task of disaster risk management to the most pressing necessity of our era: sustainable development. It investigates how the contribution of disaster risk management to sustainable development can be strengthened by ...
