Hazard Mitigation and Preparedness

 

 

Q1: In your opinion, based on what you have learned in Modules 4-6, what level of government is the most appropriate level to deal with the impacts of hazards and climate change? Why? Try to come up with a good example to complement your explanation.

Q2: Using the Internet or other resources, find a hazard zoning map of the area where you grew up. Describe the level of risk in comparison with other places in that region and assess the risk of experiencing a disaster event. Determine whether the map is useful to make decisions at the local level (consider the scale of the map) and comment on the strenghts and weaknesses of the zonification.

Q3: Applying what you have learned in Modules 4-6 (review the modules!), how do you evaluate the response to COVID-19 from the different administrative levels and the coordination among them? What are some of the successes and the failures in the response? What would you have done differently in this multilevel coordination? Focus on the question (Leave aside political opinions).
