The Task
The United Nations Disaster Assessment and Coordination (UNDAC) team is the international emergency response system for sudden-onset emergencies. UNDAC was created in 1993 and is designed to help the United Nations and governments of disaster-affected countries during the first phase of an emergency.
You have been asked by UNDAC to investigate a recent natural hazard event (within the last 20 years) and suggest ways in which the emergency response could be improved so as to minimise loss of life, economic and environmental damage for similar hazard events in the future. You should present your findings as a report using the following structure:
You should include relevant maps, graphs, diagrams and statistics into your report
