2005年克什米尔地震后，巴基斯坦政府成立了国家灾害管理局（NDMA）来处理未来的灾害，然后在所有省份建立了省级灾害管理局。本文通过采访参与减少灾害风险和管理活动的政府和非政府组织的主要行为者，分析了俾路支省社区灾害管理机构的权力下放情况。数据显示，俾路支省的灾害仍在省一级处理，灾害机构尚未在地区和社区一级充分落实。这加剧了人民对灾害的脆弱性。该文件建议省和国家一级机构进行有效的准备和协调，以提高社区的认识和准备。此外，本文的结论是，灾害管理当局应实施方案和活动，使社区减少灾害风险。(C)2013爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利，
After the 2005 earthquake in Kashmir, the Pakistani government set up the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) to handle future disasters and then created Provincial Disaster Management Authorities in all the provinces. This paper analyzes the decentralization of the disaster management institutions in the community of Baluchistan, using interviews of key actors in government and non-governmental organizations involved in disaster risk reduction and management activities. The data revealed that disasters in Baluchistan are still handled at the provincial level and that disaster institutions are not yet fully implemented at the district and community levels. This has exacerbated the people's vulnerability to disasters. The paper recommends efficient preparedness and coordination of provincial and national level agencies to enhance community awareness and preparedness. In addition, the paper concludes that disaster management authorities should implement programs and activities to empower communities for disaster risk reduction. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd.
