“…The term "systemic character of governance" describes the entire procedure of proactive prevention, thorough response, and adaptation in the case of flooding [19]. Systemic governance as a whole is consistent with the meaning of "resilience" in planning science.…”

The likelihood and uncertainty of severe rains and flooding in the middle basin of the Yangtze River have grown due to global warming and growing urbanization. A flood risk assessment index system is built based on resilience theory to assess community flood risk in a significantly changing environment, with communities serving as the primary body to manage flood risk in cities. The flood risk level of communities in Wuhan from 2011 to 2020 was assessed using the Analytic Hierarchical Process (AHP) and Dempster–Shafer (DS) evidence theory, utilizing an example of the typical Wuhan community. The findings indicate that: (1) The weight of hazard-causing factors is the largest and has the greatest influence on the risk of flooding in the community. (2) When looking at time series, the risk of hazard-causing factors gradually rises, while the risks associated with systemic governance, protective works, and community vulnerability steadily decline. Building resilient communities and enhancing flood risk management capability should be priorities for the government, local communities, and citizens.

“…For 1), a first step might be a systematisation of applied university-led community risk research initiatives that act as intermediaries between communities and government (Rivera-Fl orez et al, 2020;Smith et al, 2022). The challenges for establishing such institutional routines (question 2) might initially be identified with government stakeholder interviews.…”

PurposeDisasters continue to be most prevalent and severe for marginalised communities. To reach those furthest behind first, as the global community pledges in the 2030 Agenda, a critical assessment of equity in disaster risk governance is necessary. Yet, the understanding of factors that mediate the capacity of the governance processes to achieve equity ambitions is limited. This paper addresses this gap by proposing and testing a conceptual framework to assess equity in disaster risk governance.Design/methodology/approachThe framework analyses the extent to which institutional relationships and data in risk governance support inclusion and diversity of voice and enable the equitable engagement of communities. The study applied the framework to key risk policies across governance levels in Brazil and Colombia.FindingsThe study finds that institutional awareness of cross-sectoral and -scalar coordination clearly exists. Yet, the engagement of actors further down the governance scale is framed reactively at all scales in both countries. The analysis of the risk data practices indicates that although data integration and sharing are key policy priorities, the policies frame the relations of disaster risk data actors as hierarchical, with data needs determined from the top down.Originality/valueA key contribution of this framework is that its equity view results in a nuanced analysis, thus pointing to the differences between the two countries concerning the factors that mediate these challenges and providing specific entry points for strengthening equity in risk governance policies.

“…Aspectos de otras investigaciones coinciden con nuestro estudio, respecto a la percepción del riesgo y el actuar de una comunidad, donde muchas veces omiten la impor tancia de la situación de riesgo y actúan de forma indivi dual y reactiva, siendo ideal estar organizados como estrategia deseable [7]. Un estudio realizado en Colombia destaca las comunidades en laderas de cerros, influen ciadas por dinámicas socioeconómicas y culturales en áreas urbanas con características físico naturales, que deben ser consideradas para la construcción de vivien das y que, por la necesidad, los terrenos son invadidos, sin prever la situación de riesgo [8], similar a la comuni dad de nuestro estudio, cuya cercanía a laderas de ce rros, lo somete a una situación de riesgo [9].…”

Introducción: Los desastres causan daños al ambiente y a las personas, impactando en la salud, condición de vida y paz emocional, lo que requiere una comunidad conocedora de las características territoriales, las incidencias de los efectos ambientales, los peligros sanitarios y las competencias intersectoriales ante un desastre. Objetivo: Identificar la percepción del riesgo de desastres en una comunidad vulnerable.Metodología: Estudio descriptivo transversal con un universo estudio de 304 viviendas con jefes de hogar de la comunidad Villa Esperanza del Distrito de San Miguelito. Se consideró la percepción del riesgo ambiental y epidemiológico. Fue elaborado un cuestionario con preguntas abiertas y cerradas para datos cualitativos y cuantitativos. Se aplicaron medidas de tendencia central presentando los datos en frecuencias relativas y absolutas en escala nominal, ordinal y en mapas georeferenciados.Resultados: Aceptaron participar 286 jefes de hogar. El 53.8% no percibe el riesgo ambiental y el 46.2% si lo percibe. El riesgo epidemiológico no es percibido por el 79.0% de los jefes de hogar y el 21.0% sí lo percibe. Considerando las enfermedades prevenibles por vacunas e infecciones por Coronavirus (COVID -19), el 44.4% indicó, que algún miembro del hogar padeció está enfermedad. Conclusión: Se identificó la subestimación del riesgo o negación implícita del riesgo y ausencia de linealidad en la percepción de riesgo de desastre.Se hace necesario la promoción y prevención para conocimiento, control preventivo y preparación en gestión de riesgo de desastres en la comunidad Villa Esperanza.
