World Disasters Report 2009 - Focus on early warning, early action
Source(s): International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC)
Published by the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC), this report argues that early warning without early action is not enough; early action can do more to reduce loss of life and protect livelihoods than can be achieved through emergency response alone. National governments, donors and all stakeholders must take up this challenge.

Supporting Resilient Post-earthquake recovery in China
Source(s): GFDRR Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery
This document highlights resilient post-earthquake recovery in China.
Past experience has shown that the goal is
not only to restore basic services and living
conditions in an incrementally improved
way, but rather that it is necessary to
strategically embed the reconstruction
efforts into the overall development
strategy of the area; ensuring that after
reconstruction is complete, economic
development in the earthquake affected
areas is sustainable and surpasses predisaster
levels. Accordingly, reconstruction
does not only restore services, but is laying
the foundation in appropriate locations,
for sound, sustainable social and economic
development
