3 Mission Statement The Global Disaster Health Network is designed to translate the best possible scholarly information to educators worldwide. What are the Disaster Supercourse & JIT lecture?

4 What is the Disaster Supercourse? What is a JIT lecture? http://www.pitt.edu/~super1.

5 Lecture objectives  To provide the best possible scientific information about the Indonesia earthquake, 27 May 2006  To teach how the science can help Indonesian to be prepared for primary & secondary prevention of consequences of earthquake

6 Lecture objectives In this lecture you will find:  How the vulnerability conditions can change a natural hazard to a disaster?

7 What is the earthquake? The shaking of earth caused by waves moving on and below the earth's surface and causing: surface faulting, tremors vibration, liquefaction, landslides, aftershocks and/or tsunamis.

8 How earthquake happens?  It caused by a sudden slip on a FAULT.  Stresses in the earth's outer layer push sides of fault together.  Stress builds up & rocks slips suddenly, releasing energy in waves that travel through the earth's CRUST & cause the shaking that we Feel during an earthquake.

9 Earthquake Strength Measures I) Magnitude & II) Intensity I) Magnitude:  Definition: A measure of actual physical energy release at its source as estimated from instrumental observations.  Scale: Richter Scale By Charles Richter, 1936 Open-ended scale The oldest & most widely used Noji 1997

10 II) Intensity:  Definition: a measure of the felt or perceived effects of an earthquake rather than the strength of the earthquake itself.  Scale: Modified Mercalli (MM) scale 12-point scale, ranges from barely perceptible earthquakes at MM I to near total destruction at MM XII Earthquake Strength Measures I) Magnitude & II) Intensity

11  Magnitude refers to the force of the earthquake as a whole, while intensity refers to the effects of an earthquake at a particular site.  An earthquake can have just one magnitude, while intensity is usually strongest close to the epicenter & is weaker the farther a site is from the epicenter.  The intensity of an earthquake is more germane to its public health consequences than its magnitude. Magnitude versus Intensity

26 Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta (DIY) province People of DIY only were worry about the eruption of Mount Merapi in the Northern part of City of Yogyakarta, they had never thought about earthquake over hundred years! DIY has a special status in Republic of Indonesia, although in the Province level, the governor is always the descendant of the King, to honor the culture of Kingdom.

35 Emergency Health Information System Importance of right kind of donations (based on right needs assessment) Incident Command System (ICS)  Inter and Intra sectoral Coordination Some key points in relief operation:

36 Pease see the following lectures: Part I. http://www.pitt.edu/~super1/lecture/lec13021/index.htm Part II. http://www.pitt.edu/~super1/lecture/lec13051/index.htm Public Health Consequences of Earthquakes

37  Only for covering the 6 months relief needs: 103,389,500 US$ (UN Flash Appeal) Indonesia Earthquake: Economical Damage How about the recovery & reconstruction of damaged infrastructures?

38  Several decades of development wiped out in seconds in Yogyakarta & Java  How many percent of Indonesia GDP has been lost in the recent earthquake?  What do you think about spending this money on prevention? And absolutely without loosing the lives and injuries! Indonesia Earthquake

39 30 years continuous evolution in the practice of Crisis or Disaster Management  Civil defense  Emergency assistance  Disaster response and relief  Humanitarian assistance  Emergency management  Civil protection  Disaster mitigation and prevention  Disaster Risk Management Strategic shift from managing a disastrous event to more preventive and proactive approaches!!

40 What is Disaster risk reduction (disaster reduction or DRR)? The conceptual framework of elements considered with the possibilities to minimize vulnerabilities and disaster risks throughout a society, to avoid (prevention) or to limit (mitigation and preparedness) the adverse impacts of hazards, within the broad context of sustainable development !

41 A potentially damaging physical event, phenomenon or human activity that may cause the loss of life or injury, property damage, social and economic disruption or environmental degradation. DRR Terminology: What is the Hazard? Indonesian Earthquake GeologicalNatural Flood, HurricaneHydro meteorological PandemicBiological Deforestation Environmental degradation Hyman Induced Nuclear releaseTechnological

42 DRR Terminology: What is the Vulnerability? The conditions determined by physical, social, economic, and environmental factors or processes, which increase the susceptibility of a community to the impact of hazards. Vulnerable Yogyakarta, Java: o Unprepared people, society o Unprepared institutions o Non-resistant building o High-density population o etc.

43 What is Risk? The probability of harmful consequences, or expected losses (deaths, injuries, property, livelihoods, economic activity disrupted or environment damaged) resulting from interactions between natural or human- induced hazards & vulnerable conditions. Risk = Hazards x Vulnerability

44 What is a Disaster ? A serious disruption of the functioning of a community or a society causing widespread human, material, economic or environmental losses which exceed the ability of the affected community or society to cope using its own resources.

45 What is a Disaster? A disaster is a function of the risk process. It results from the combination of hazards, conditions of vulnerability and insufficient capacity or measures to reduce the potential negative consequences of risk.

46 Indonesian earthquake: Risk model Maybe DIY & Java communities were not able to modify the hazard part of the earthquake risk model, and predict it precisely, BUT they could assess their vulnerability conditions and reduced them! This has been the same experience in Bam & Kashmir!

47 Main Lesson Learned So, an earthquake measuring 6.3 on the Richter scale is not equal to a disaster. It is just movement of the earth crust. Our vulnerability has changed it to a disaster!!

48 Just-in-Time Education Let’s teach the communities right now ! Risk awareness & Knowledge development including education, training, research and information are of the important fields of action for Disaster Risk Reduction!

49  People need information as much as water, food, medicine or shelter.  Information can save lives, livelihoods & resources.  Lack of information can make people victims of disaster. World Disaster Report 2005 – IFRC/RCS Information ….
