How to build disaster-resilient cities and societies for making people happy
https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1826-742X
Abstract The current disaster approaches and strategies have failed. Our society is also vulnerable to COVID-19 pandemics and natural disasters. This paper surveys the conventional disaster governance regimes and examines whether a sustainable and resilient society against natural and human-induced disasters can be built. This paper aims to shed light on resilient city and country building from the perspective of disaster prevention. Current disaster strategies must be updated in order to mitigate the cost of disaster events and to make people happy. This paper quantifies the scores of the COVID-19 policies for strengthening disaster prevention technology.
Highlights The pandemic has revealed the best policy among individual policies in the world. The first 72-h authority vacuum plays a key role in reducing the risk of disaster. The sustainable technology allows us to build resilient society against disasters. The more deaths there are, the more unhappy people become. The less the number of deaths, the better the policy.
