Abstract

This chapter returns to the core themes that have organized this book: the role of community, markets, and the government in mitigating against disaster and deepening resilience to shocks. Drawing on cutting edge research along with the investigations carried out by the authors in this volume, this chapter brings together multiple streams of theory and praxis to provide policy makers and disaster managers with concrete policy recommendations. We look at policies such as governance mechanisms, microcredit, micro- and regional insurance, and risk pooling schemes. Further, we draw out the policy implications for nations in East Asia and beyond in an era when disasters come more frequently and bring greater economic costs.
