The purpose of the Disaster and Development Centre (DDC) is to explore the association of sustainable development with improved human security through risk management, resilience, emergency response systems, and longer-term recovery strategies. These fields of inquiry are guided by the needs of communities and institutions in addressing vulnerability and disaster response. DDC activities include a programme of postgraduate studies in disaster management and sustainable development and academic links spanning four continents. http://northumbria.ac.uk/sd/academic/sas/sas_research/ddc/ http://northumbria.ac.uk/sd/academic/sas/sas_research/ddc/ Disaster and Development Centre

Through our scientific and technological genius we have made of this world a neighbourhood, but yet we have failed to make it a brotherhood. But this we must do. We must learn to live together as brothers or we will all perish together as fools. We are tied in a single garment of destiny, caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, and what affects one directly affects all indirectly. In the words of Martin Luther King
