‘Natural’ disasters are not just the product of a natural event, but of the social, political and economic environment that shapes the manner in which it affects people.

The integration of emergency preparedness and relief efforts with development activities is therefore essential. This blog has a particular focus on law, governance and development in Australia and the South Pacific (particularly Melanesia).
