“…The sixth cluster decentralized cloud sourcing information for service and performance evaluation focuses on how decentralized disaster risk management systems through new technologies can enhance inclusive and locally contextual knowledge production and resilience building. Studies in this cluster addressed mobile phone technologies that leverage the rearrangement of the disaster management system, adopting a polycentric approach that involves multiple local stakeholders (Sukhwani and Shaw 2020; Paul, Bee, and Budimir 2021; Poonia et al 2021; Wang and Chen 2022). The literature suggests an innovative, collaborative disaster management mechanism from the stakeholder's perspective and how the new system can complement the extant emergency management system for better service and performance.…”

Despite a growing body of research on the smart city framework for disaster resilience, a comprehensive systematic literature review from urban planning perspectives has never been attempted. In this review of smart and resilient cities, we distill vital learning and shared concepts, identify research trends and limitations, and suggest avenues for future research. The results reveal that reviewed articles primarily focused on methodological approaches addressing how to adapt technologies for disaster resilience, yet rarely discussed the sociological approaches to environment, economy, and governance. This study will provide a reference to trace existing research and suggest equitable smart resilience.

“…An evidence-based foundation is suitable to advance the cascade of CS projects. Our analysis revealed that in the last decade, CS frameworks have emerged with remarkable growth (Figure 2) due primarily to the application of technologies and connectivity (Cappa et al, 2018;McCurdy & Vinogradova-Shiffer, 2021;Nesbit et al, 2020;Paul et al, 2021). Notably, large international organizations have integrated CS into their guidelines (UNESCO, 2021a) and fostered CS through financial programs (European Commission, 2020).…”

“…Cases such as the Fukushima nuclear accident (Hultquist & Cervone, 2017) and the recent COVID-19 pandemic (Goehrke, 2020) correspond to CS studies that focus on disaster risk reduction (DRR). These highlight the potential to bring diverse communities together and the need to broaden the spectrum to consider ethics and gender, among other topics (Paul et al, 2021). Moreover, these emergencies have triggered calls to generate policies to assess the impact of CS data in the legal arena (Peel, 2020).…”

Emerging technologies and community empowerment have driven citizen science (CS) projects. However, their impact remains vague, partly because of the difficulties in monitoring and standardizing these projects. Notably, the development of citizens' complex thinking is not among the primary goals, despite the connection with the tenets of Education 4.0 and the training of socially committed citizens. Therefore, we propose a framework and typology to foster CS projects while scaling up complex thinking. We used the evidence-based educational innovation (EBEI) methodology and the Theory of Change (ToC) perspective, reviewing some of the most relevant frameworks under UNESCO's Open Science Recommendation. Findings from the CS projects analysis revealed that: (a) there is inattention to developing the sub-components of the complex thinking macro-competency; (b) a growing trend to develop frameworks for CS projects is taking place; (c) there is a prevalence of CS project frameworks focused on prevention and control, project evaluation and design, and education and research; (d) a framework with three dimensions based on ToC (Outbound, Threshold and Full-cycle) can guide the development of CS projects; and (e) an eight-component typology can measure the progress and impact of CS projects from the perspectives of Context-awareness, Citizen engagement, Infrastructure leverage, Technological innovation, Educational innovation, Outreach and Scale, Network building, and Complex Thinking. We envision that the integrated framework and typology proposed, scaffolded by complex thinking, can comprehensively broaden the impact of CS initiatives.

“…Figure 7: Features in Mobile Phone that can help in disaster (Paul, Bee, & Budimir, 2021) Facebook has a feature of crisis response that helps to know if the people living in the disaster zone are safe or are in need of some help. This feature was widely used in Nepal during the 2015 earthquake.…”

Natural disasters are uncontrollable and cannot be avoided, although their effects can be mitigated in many ways, but human-caused catastrophes can be avoided and limited if people become more aware of their actions. Frequent occurrences of disasters have caused many casualties, destroyed physical properties, and created environmental damage which is raising concern in Nepal and the world as a whole. This study focuses at analyzing several technologies mainly on Robotics, Drone Technology, Mobile Phone and Social Medias, Internet of Technology and Artificial Intelligence that have been used and can be used for disaster management. These technologies are used in the three phases of disaster management, primarily the pre-disaster phase, disaster phase, and post-disaster phase, are explored to see how they can be used for predicting upcoming disasters, acting quickly and effectively during disasters, and analyzing the impact of disaster damage caused by disasters. This article would also be helpful to know about the development in technologies that have been achieved and further development that can be done to minimize the effect and casualties caused by disasters and also implement them in the necessary areas possible in our country as it is highly prone to the frequent occurrence of natural calamities.
