No, I haven't yet - so would be very grateful for the loan of them.
Happy new year!

John,
Did you find a copy of the UNDRO guidelines. I may have around.

Subject: disability and disasters: request for information and assistance
Next year, the Benfield Hazard Research Centre hopes to start planning a
collaborative action-research project on this subject, addressing two
related themes: (i) disability as a component of vulnerability and how to
overcome this; and (ii) disability as a consequence of disasters. The
focus will be on developing countries but the initiative will draw on
approaches in use worldwide. We've had a few preliminary conversations
with potential partners and gathered some of the limited information
available on the subject.
This, then is a request for help in identifying (i) documents and (ii)
people with experience in this field.
In particular, I would like to get hold of a copy of the old UNDRO
guidelines 'Disasters and the Disabled' (1982). Does anyone have a spare
copy, a scanned version, or one that they are willing to lend for
photocopying?
Thanks in advance, and best wishes
John
