Abstract

This paper discusses the apparent disconnection between disaster risk management research and the lack of tools for business continuity after disastrous events in Chile. As disasters are a common occurrence in business development, local firms are becoming aware of the need for having tools for preparedness and mitigation of negative effects of disasters. Nevertheless, in Chile, this private awareness seems to be part of the business aptitude of large-sized firms rather SMEs. Some of the arguments presented here illustrate this gap between local firms and their need to integrate business continuity management into their business operations and their decision making to cope with disaster risks. In this vein, this document argues the need for innovative academic offerings in Chile and presents a proposal to advance in linking disaster risk management and business education at the University of Chile. This program is developed in the medium-term for each of its components, starting with undergraduate students and achieving major actions with public and private stakeholders in a progressive ladder of initiatives.

智利的商业教育和灾害风险管理意识的建立
本文讨论了灾害风险管理研究与智利灾难性事件后缺乏业务连续性工具之间的明显脱节。由于灾害是商业发展过程中经常发生的事情,当地公司逐渐意识到需要有备灾和减轻灾害负面影响的工具。然而,在智利,这种私人意识似乎是大公司而不是中小企业的商业才能的一部分。这里提出的一些论点说明了当地公司与他们将业务连续性管理整合到业务运营和应对灾害风险决策中的需要之间的差距。本着这一精神,本文件认为智利需要创新的学术课程,并提出了一项建议,以推动智利大学将灾害风险管理与商业教育联系起来。该计划的每个组成部分都是在中期制定的,从本科生开始,逐步与公共和私人利益相关者一起采取重大行动。
