对减少灾害风险的投资不仅可以减少损失,而且可以促进社会和经济发展。虽然有许多评估减少灾害风险投资的方法,但大多数方法都是以整个区域的损失和收益为基础的,不同社会阶层的收益差异并不清楚。因此,很难确定对穷人的影响,因为穷人受灾害的影响特别严重。在这里,我们提出了一种方法来评估减少灾害风险的投资对穷人的影响的基础上,从巴戈,缅甸的案例研究数据,包括采访了440户。结果表明,考虑到贫困人口的发展,减少灾害风险投资的效益可提高1.44倍。尽管对如此复杂的系统进行建模存在不确定性,但结果表明需要考虑减少灾害风险投资的直接和间接影响,以促进发展中国家的可持续发展。
Investments in disaster risk reduction not only reduce damage, but also promote social and economic development. While there are many methods of evaluating investments in disaster risk reduction, most methods are based on losses and benefits to the entire region, and the differences in the benefits for different social classes are unclear. Therefore, it is difficult to ascertain the impact on the poor, who are particularly severely affected by disasters. Here, we present a method for assessing the impact of disaster risk reduction investments on the poor based on case study data from Bago, Myanmar, including interviews with 440 households. The results show that by considering the development of the poor, the benefits of investment in disaster risk reduction can increase by ∼4.4 times. Although there is uncertainty in modeling such a complex system, the results demonstrate the need to consider both the direct and indirect impacts of disaster risk reduction investments, for facilitating sustainable development in developing countries.
