The Bahamas: National disaster preparedness baseline assessment
This report is more than just an assessment, it's a sustainable system for understanding, updating, accessing, and applying critical risk information in decision making. This assessment provides the necessary tools, scientific data, and evidence-based practices to effectively reduce disaster risk-informing decision at the national, island, and community levels.
The report includes a Risk and Vulnerability Assessment (RVA) which examines several components of risk including hazard exposures, vulnerability, island capacity, and logistics capacity. The findings are further reviewed through the lens of the Pacific Disaster Center's unique Disaster Management Analysis (DMA). The DMA contextualises the RVA, and guides recommendations designed to increase resilience and reduce disaster risk.
