This concluding chapter discusses the relevance of the different ideas about hazard risk perception, written about in the rest of this book, to the practice of disaster risk management, particularly with regard to current moves to encourage community-based resilience. It identifies the diversity of views about how risk is perceived and how to study risk perception, noting the importance of socio-cultural factors in understandings of risk. It questions the relevance of much of the risk perception research carried out in high-income countries to the situations of poor and vulnerable people in low-income countries, who in addition to living with natural hazards have to manage many other threats to their daily well-being and livelihoods. The implications of these discussions for public education about risk are examined, as are related issues of responsibility, authority and trust.
