Conclusion

The damage, harm, losses, and problems caused by the occurrence of a natural or other disaster including the death and destruction it wrought can take up significant human, psychological, physical, community, environmental, infrastructural, technological, and financial/economic attention, resources, time, and energy. It is therefore necessary to develop scholarship that can assist in the development of alternative scenarios, approaches, and models that may be more effective, efficient, and satisfactory to disaster-affected persons (DAP).
