World Bank Publishes Case Study
on Honduras Disaster Recovery
"Learning Lessons
from Disaster Recovery: The Case of Honduras” is the
title of a new release in the World Bank Disaster Risk Management
Working Paper Series. It examines recovery in Honduras following
Hurricane Mitch in all sectors, identifying lessons learned,
good practices and constraints to be overcome. The study looks
at four main areas: policies related to disaster recovery
and management; systems for disaster recovery, resources;
and the impact of recovery efforts. The study also contains
concrete recommendations on development, transparency and
equity and risk management that apply to all actors working
in recovery in the aftermath of disasters.
The report grew out of
a case study that was part of a ProVention Consortium initiative.
ProVention is a global partnership of governments, international
organizations, academic institutions, the private sector and
civil society to reduce the impact of disasters in developing
countries. Download a copy of the publication at www.proventionconsortium.org
