Post a response to the following topic in your assigned group on this Discussion by midweek and respond to at least one of your peer’s post by the end of the module week.

Refer to the reading in Activity 7.1: The Year that Shook the Rich: A Review of Natural Disasters in 2011, by the Brookings Institution and discuss Natural Disasters.

Your instructor will divide the class into groups of 4-6 students each. Within each group, decide on a community/country/region as the focal point for your group to discuss the ideas about international natural disaster phenomena and response.

Some points to get you started in your discussions:

• Why are these catastrophic events on the rise, or are they?
• What regions are most at risk? And people most vulnerable?
  • For what natural event (hurricanes, flooding, earthquakes, famine, drought, etc.)?
  • What makes this population most vulnerable? Is it associated with age? Economy? Infrastructure? Political issues?
• What capabilities do these countries/regions have for natural disaster planning/mitigation/response?
• What U.S. tools and agencies could be or should be implemented (i.e. NIMS, EOC, ICS, NDRF, NRF, FEMA) in these countries.
