Assessing Extent of Existing Housing Vulnerability

Vulnerability of existing houses is one of the most serious life threatening risks during natural disasters. To plan any risk reduction measure, it is essential to know the extent of vulnerability of existing housing. However, there is need to develop a scientific methodology that can measure extent of multi-hazard vulnerability. ‘People in Centre’ Consulting undertook vulnerability assessment in 9 coastal villages of Porbandar district in Gujarat with support from UNNATI and mandated by GSDMA. This assessment report innovates further upon methodology developed earlier by IIT-Hyderabad and BMTPC. To access this report in PDF format, send us a request.
