Hallo Radix folks,
I am curious to know whether UNISDR has (indirectly) declared the retirement of the concept of DM cycles.
It is simply not listed in the ISDR Glossary - https://www.unisdr.org/we/inform/terminology.
Dont get me wrong. It is a serendipity for me as I am glad that cyclical thinking can be pushed to retire. As a teacher, it has been difficult to correct students' language suround the die hard terminologies such as natural disasters and disaster cycles. And I was very glad to see ISDR Website clearly argue that no such things as natural disasters.
Going back to disaster cycle or disaster management cycle stuff, I am keen for an explanation if DM cycle concept is turned off with purpose?
Why am I asking this? Well for practical reasons. I am in the middle of writing a policy document and I am trying to use something more practical that could be understood by policy makers. However, an exellent reviewer advocates ISDR glossary of terms (which is in my favor).
Thanks heaps.
