IDENTIFYING EMERGING ISSUES IN DISASTER RISK RE...

The goal of this book is to explore disaster risk reduction (DRR)  migration  climate change
adaptation (CCA) and sustainable development linkages from a number of different geographical 
social and natural science angles. Well-known scientists and practitioners present different
perspectives regarding these inter-linkages from around the world  with theoretical discussions
as well as field observations. This publication contributes in particular to the discussion on
the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction (SFDRR) 2015-2030 and the debate about how to
improve DRR  including CCA  policies and practices  taking into account migration processes
from a large perspective where both natural and social factors are crucial and mutually
alloyed. Some authors see the SFDRR as a positive step forward in terms of embracing a
multitude of issues  others doubting that the agreement will lead to much concrete action
toward real action on the ground. This book is a timely contribution for researchers  students
and policy makers in the fields of environment  human geography  migration  disaster and
climate change studies who seek a more comprehensive grasp of contemporary development issues.
