This study explores issues faced by the largest visible minority group impacted by the 2016 Fort McMurray wildfire evacuation - the Muslim community. Through qualitative methods and deep analysis of data gathered, challenges and opportunities that are relevant both for improving emergency preparedness within the Muslim community, and for improving the provision of emergency social services at large, are discussed. The overall goal of this study is to give voice to the experiences of the Muslim community, and to highlight specific accommodations that could have been beneficial. While in recent years, research efforts have been undertaken to better improve the needs of First Nations and Indigenous groups in Canada during wildfire disasters, this work is a starting point for considering other portions of Canada's diverse communities.
这项研究探讨了受2016年麦克默里堡野火疏散影响的最大可见少数群体——穆斯林社区所面临的问题。通过定性方法和对收集的数据的深入分析,讨论了与改善穆斯林社区应急准备和改善整个紧急社会服务提供相关的挑战和机遇。这项研究的总体目标是表达穆斯林社区的经历,并强调可能有益的具体便利条件。虽然近年来,人们进行了研究工作,以更好地改善加拿大原住民和土著群体在野火灾害期间的需求,但这项工作是考虑加拿大多样化社区其他部分的起点。

Using an action research approach, this paper investigates challenges associated with the distribution of emergency supplies (DES) in Puerto Rico in the aftermath of Hurricane Maria. Through the descriptive analysis of open- and closed-survey questions, it was observed that many challenges such as demand uncertainty, asymmetries in information, and warehouse location were all challenges in the response to the disaster. As a result, recommendations for enhancing humanitarian logistics in future disaster situations are presented at the end of this paper, in addition to recommendations for future research.
本文采用行动研究方法,调查了飓风玛丽亚后波多黎各紧急物资分配(DES)的挑战。通过对开放式和封闭式调查问题的描述性分析,发现需求不确定性、信息不对称、仓库选址等诸多挑战都是灾害应对中的挑战。因此,除了对未来研究的建议外,本文最后还提出了在未来灾害情况下加强人道主义后勤的建议。

A disaster is a severe disruption event caused by nature's hazardous events or can have human origins. A disaster threatens and disrupts people's lives and livelihoods, and affects human casualties, environmental damage, property loss, and psychological impact. One disaster management aim is to assure prompt and appropriate assistance to victims when a disaster happens. In this situation, it is necessary to coordinate external assistance that given by a wide range of bodies and organisations. Each of them has a different role, different interests, and different working methods. These roles and the interaction among the parties are used in this paper to develop the coordination structure as a joint effort in humanitarian relief operations. The coordination mechanism is proposed in order for the humanitarian relief operation to be done quickly, effectively, and efficiently. In this paper, the information system is also developed to minimise overlap and duplication of effort.
灾难是由自然危险事件引起的严重破坏事件,也可能是人类造成的。灾难威胁和扰乱人们的生活和生计,造成人员伤亡、环境破坏、财产损失和心理影响。灾害管理的一个目标是确保在灾害发生时向受害者提供及时和适当的援助。在这种情况下,有必要协调各种机构和组织提供的外部援助。他们每个人都有不同的角色,不同的兴趣,不同的工作方法。本文利用这些作用和各方之间的相互作用来发展协调结构,作为人道主义救济行动的共同努力。提出协调机制是为了使人道主义救援行动迅速、有效、高效地进行。在本文中,还开发了信息系统,以尽量减少重叠和重复工作。

This study aims to increase understanding of the operational, organisational and governance structures of emergency services by assessing, validating and expanding on the applicability of the time-critical information services (TCIS) framework within the European context. We analysed the emergency response related roles and tasks of different emergency services' organisations within six European countries and Turkey. Two datasets were utilised: emergency services' concepts of operation (CONOPS) and emergency scenario examples provided by emergency services practitioners and representatives. The TCIS framework was utilised as a theoretical basis for the analysis. The results suggest that the steps involved in making, receiving and handling emergency calls follow fairly similar paths in different European countries. However, there are noteworthy differences in emergency services models that define the sequential procedures within emergency response and management. The TCIS model was developed further to better account for the different tasks and roles included in the fairly case-specific emergency services process in the European context.
本研究旨在通过评估、验证和扩大时间关键信息服务(TCIS)框架在欧洲范围内的适用性,提高对应急服务的运营、组织和治理结构的理解。我们分析了六个欧洲国家和土耳其不同应急服务组织在应急响应方面的作用和任务。使用了两个数据集:应急服务的运作概念(CONOPS)和应急服务从业人员和代表提供的应急场景示例。TCIS框架被用作分析的理论基础。研究结果表明,在不同的欧洲国家,拨打、接听和处理紧急电话的步骤遵循着相当相似的路径。然而,在定义应急响应和管理中的顺序程序的应急服务模型中存在显著差异。TCIS模型得到了进一步发展,以更好地考虑欧洲背景下相当具体的紧急服务过程中包含的不同任务和角色。

The occurrence of natural disasters has become a major global problem. It poses serious threats to the concept of sustainable development. Over the last two decades, more than 1.3 million people and nearly two trillion dollars have been lost due to natural disasters. The paper discusses the status of disaster mitigation information systems during the Uttarakhand disaster of June 2013. The researchers have discussed the status of such actions taken by both Government and Non-Government Organizations (NGOs) from a qualitative perspective. The Software Package for Social Science (SPSS) software was used for the analysis and the results are presented in descriptive statistical format. As many as (n = 1500) respondents were interviewed, out of which 80% respondents were ill-informed. Over 80% respondents were found to be untrained to respond in a disastrous situation. Hence, the researchers have proposed the use of better information and communication mediums with the assistance of public and private partnership (PPP model) to deal with disastrous situations in the future along with some indigenous methods.
自然灾害的发生已成为一个全球性的重大问题。它对可持续发展的概念构成严重威胁。在过去的二十年里,130多万人和近两万亿美元因自然灾害而损失。本文讨论了2013年6月北阿坎德邦灾难期间减灾信息系统的状况。研究人员从质量角度讨论了政府和非政府组织采取此类行动的情况。使用社会科学软件包(SPSS)进行分析,结果以描述性统计格式呈现。多达1500名受访者接受了采访,其中80%的受访者信息不灵通。超过80%的受访者被发现没有接受过应对灾难性情况的培训。因此,研究人员建议在公私合作伙伴关系(PPP模式)的帮助下,使用更好的信息和通信媒介,以及一些本土方法来应对未来的灾难性情况。

Harnessing the power of metaphor: uncovering a hidden language of interoperability within the natural speech of emergency managers 利用隐喻的力量:在应急管理人员的自然语言中发现隐藏的互操作性语言
IF 0.2 Q4 MANAGEMENT Pub Date : 2019-04-18 DOI: 10.1504/IJEM.2019.10020713

This study harnesses the non-literal communicative power of metaphor to enable quicker transferal of rich detailed information within and across emergency management organisations to promote multi-agency interoperability. A series of inductive semi-structured interviews with emergency managers from the UK and USA were completed. The collated data was then analysed with content and metaphorical analysis to create two theories. First, the Trivial Pursuit Pie, a conceptual metaphor that demonstrates the interoperability problem whereby intrinsic barriers within Command and Control restrict interoperability. This metaphor can be used as a learning tool to heighten awareness of barriers to multi-agency interoperability in both academic and practitioner environments. Secondly, the theory of interoperability metaphors (TIM) provides a metaphor-based lexicon for interoperability grounded in the natural language of emergency managers. TIM stimulates interoperability through the recognition and usage of linguistic metaphors to develop shared meanings and understanding.
本研究利用隐喻的非字面交际能力,在应急管理组织内部和组织之间更快地传递丰富的详细信息,以促进多机构的互操作性。对来自英国和美国的应急管理人员进行了一系列归纳式半结构化访谈。然后对整理好的数据进行内容分析和隐喻分析,形成两种理论。首先,琐碎的追求饼(Trivial Pursuit Pie),这是一个概念隐喻,它演示了互操作性问题,即命令和控制内部的内在障碍限制了互操作性。这个比喻可以用作学习工具,以提高对学术和实践环境中多机构互操作性障碍的认识。其次,互操作性隐喻理论为应急管理人员的自然语言互操作性提供了一个基于隐喻的词汇。TIM通过识别和使用语言隐喻来促进互操作性,从而开发共享的意义和理解。

Flood is a natural disaster that occurs annually in Malaysia causing devastating effects and damages to property and lives. This study looks into our environmental health and disaster preparedness, response and recovery management throughout the severe 2014 Kelantan flooding. We conducted three focus group discussions (FGDs) with healthcare, rescue and welfare workers, and community representatives involved throughout the disaster. The unprecedented severe flooding affected our environmental health and disaster management leading to various prominent issues. State level officers faced greater challenges in inter-agency communication, coordination and collaboration. District level staff faced more complications during disaster and emergency response. Meanwhile, community representatives faced issues pertaining to their livelihood mainly during and after the disaster. Recommendations include improved coordination, effective communication, improved human resource management, accessible early warning system, community empowerment and awareness, and prioritisation of continuous environmental health services. We hope that these recommendations can improve our future disaster management.
洪水是马来西亚每年发生的一种自然灾害,对财产和生命造成毁灭性的影响和损害。本研究着眼于2014年吉兰丹州严重洪灾期间我们的环境卫生和备灾、响应和恢复管理。我们与参与整个灾难的医护、救援和福利工作者以及社区代表进行了三次焦点小组讨论。前所未有的严重洪灾影响了我们的环境健康和灾害管理,导致了各种突出问题。国家一级官员在机构间沟通、协调和合作方面面临更大的挑战。县一级的工作人员在灾害和紧急反应中面临更多的困难。与此同时,社区代表主要在灾难期间和之后面临与生计有关的问题。建议包括改进协调、有效沟通、改进人力资源管理、可获得的早期预警系统、增强社区权能和认识,以及优先考虑持续的环境卫生服务。我们希望这些建议能够改善我们未来的灾害管理。

This study analyses how information is accessed and gathered in hurricane and inland flooding prone areas. The analysis reviews different information seeking behaviours, sources of information, and the factors that influence evacuation decision-making in each hurricane category within the Rio Grande Valley, Texas. Findings suggest information seeking frequency can increase the odds of making a decision to evacuate in the each hurricane category. Similarly, active information seeking behaviour is positively associated with the evacuation decision in the event of Category 4 and 5 hurricanes. Information sources from personal judgement show negative relationship with evacuation decisions in all except in Category 5. Information sources based on family/friend show positive association with evacuation decisions in Category 4 and 5. The findings highlight the importance of active information sources such as social media, frequent interactions with friends or family members, and active information seeking behaviours in Categories 4 and 5.

How risk assessments by emergency management organisations fall prey to narrow framing 应急管理组织的风险评估如何受制于狭隘的框架
IF 0.2 Q4 MANAGEMENT Pub Date : 2019-04-18 DOI: 10.1504/IJEM.2019.10020714
D. Etkin
A review of risk assessments by a number of emergency management organisations shows that though ethical judgements are implicit in the methodologies and metrics used, they are not explicitly discussed. As a result, these assessments lack transparency and suffer from narrow framing. It is proposed that the framing be broadened to integrate ethical decision-making with risk assessment and to frame the concept of risk more broadly, to create a more holistic and relevant decision-making framework.
一些应急管理组织对风险评估的审查表明,尽管道德判断隐含在所使用的方法和指标中,但并未明确讨论。因此,这些评估缺乏透明度,框架狭窄。建议扩大框架,将道德决策与风险评估结合起来,并更广泛地界定风险概念,以建立一个更全面、更相关的决策框架。

Emergency management practices are being reshaped by social media. Emergency responders are embracing social media to enhance communications during an emergency. The integration of social media into UK emergency management is ambiguous, and it is uncertain as to whether it is an effective tool. Using a mixed methods approach, this research investigates the UK emergency responders' use of social media for emergency management, focusing in particular on the UK Winter Floods of 2013/14. Furthermore, the effectiveness of the UK emergency responders' social media activity is examined. This research shows that the responders perceive social media as a useful tool to effectively deliver information to the public, although they do not appear to fully exploit it in an emergency. While the responders appear to predominantly post caution and advice, the results suggest that information about structures and utilities affected by an incident is most likely to engage an audience.
社交媒体正在重塑应急管理实践。应急响应人员正在接受社交媒体,以在紧急情况下加强沟通。将社交媒体纳入英国应急管理尚不明确,也不确定它是否是一种有效的工具。本研究采用混合方法,调查了英国应急人员使用社交媒体进行应急管理的情况,特别关注2013/14年英国冬季洪水。此外,还考察了英国应急人员社交媒体活动的有效性。这项研究表明,响应者认为社交媒体是向公众有效传递信息的有用工具,尽管他们在紧急情况下似乎没有充分利用它。虽然响应者似乎主要发布警告和建议,但结果表明,有关受事件影响的结构和公用设施的信息最有可能吸引受众。
