A DISASTER is ---
--- the set of failures that overwhelm the capability of a community to respond without external help when three continuums: 1) people, 2) community (i.e., a set of habitats, livelihoods, and social constructs), and 3) complex events (e.g., storms, earthquakes,…) intersect at a point in space and time.
![Page 30: LESSONS LEARNED FROM PAST NOTABLE DISASTERS TURKEY PART 2: STORMS Walter Hays, Global Alliance for Disaster Reduction, Vienna, Virginia, USA](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022032205/56649e7d5503460f94b8087e/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Disasters are caused by single- or multiple-event natural hazards that, (for various reasons), cause
extreme levels of mortality, morbidity, homelessness,
joblessness, economic losses, or environmental impacts.
![Page 31: LESSONS LEARNED FROM PAST NOTABLE DISASTERS TURKEY PART 2: STORMS Walter Hays, Global Alliance for Disaster Reduction, Vienna, Virginia, USA](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022032205/56649e7d5503460f94b8087e/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
THE REASONS ARE . . .
• When it does happen, the functions of the community’s buildings and infrastructure will be LOST because they are UNPROTECTED with the appropriate codes and standards.
![Page 32: LESSONS LEARNED FROM PAST NOTABLE DISASTERS TURKEY PART 2: STORMS Walter Hays, Global Alliance for Disaster Reduction, Vienna, Virginia, USA](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022032205/56649e7d5503460f94b8087e/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
THE REASONS ARE . . .
• The community is UN-PREPARED for what will likely happen, not to mention the low-probability of occurrence—high-probability of adverse consequences event.
![Page 33: LESSONS LEARNED FROM PAST NOTABLE DISASTERS TURKEY PART 2: STORMS Walter Hays, Global Alliance for Disaster Reduction, Vienna, Virginia, USA](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022032205/56649e7d5503460f94b8087e/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
THE REASONS ARE . . .
• The community has NO DISASTER PLANNING SCENARIO or WARNING SYSTEM in place as a strategic framework for early threat identification and coordinated local, national, regional, and international countermeasures.
![Page 34: LESSONS LEARNED FROM PAST NOTABLE DISASTERS TURKEY PART 2: STORMS Walter Hays, Global Alliance for Disaster Reduction, Vienna, Virginia, USA](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022032205/56649e7d5503460f94b8087e/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
THE REASONS ARE . . .
• The community LACKS THE CAPACITY TO RESPOND in a timely and effective manner to the full spectrum of expected and unexpected emergency situations.
![Page 35: LESSONS LEARNED FROM PAST NOTABLE DISASTERS TURKEY PART 2: STORMS Walter Hays, Global Alliance for Disaster Reduction, Vienna, Virginia, USA](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022032205/56649e7d5503460f94b8087e/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
THE REASONS ARE . . .
• The community is INEFFICIENT during recovery and reconstruction because it HAS NOT LEARNED from either the current experience or the cumulative prior experiences.
![Page 36: LESSONS LEARNED FROM PAST NOTABLE DISASTERS TURKEY PART 2: STORMS Walter Hays, Global Alliance for Disaster Reduction, Vienna, Virginia, USA](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022032205/56649e7d5503460f94b8087e/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
