  • Development and Governance
    • inequality of access
      • education, housing, healthcare and income are root causes of hazards as they influence vulnerability and resilience (PAR) - HDI measures these factors
        • low HDI locations have high vulnerability - people lack basics even in normality, informal housing, poor access to healthcare, low education, little welfare post hazard
    • good governance
      • less vulnerable - meeting basic needs, tackling corruption
      • preparedness - land-use planning and zoning, environmental managing e.g prevent deforestation, monitoring systems, education, insurance
    • geographical context
      • population factors
        • population density - high populated may be difficult to evacuate, isolated areas may be hard to access
      • urbanisation
        • high conc of people can put them at risk, but have more assets which may increase resilience
