This book looks at various aspects of the current legal, policy and fiscal framework for disaster management and its current effects on local capacity building and recommends systemic reform. The authors argue that resources should be used more efficiently and with more flexibility in order to promote local self-reliance and increased resilience. The book presents evidence-based options for policy makers at all levels of government to envision and implement alternative approaches that meet the increasing challenges of the 21st century.
