This book contributes to the rich debate on the potential for developmental
post-disaster reconstruction. Its key concern is the potential for postdisaster
housing reconstruction to break the cycle of poverty and dependence,
reducing people’s vulnerability to disasters and to other adverse events and
conditions. It aims to inform policy, programme design and practice.
