Disaster 157
Disaster 157 : material damage and/or impairs or endangers the life of a large number of people for a long period of time to such an extent that resources and funding available at local or regional level cannot cope without outside help. The disaster qualifies as such when it becomes apparent that the available resources and funding are inadequate for the necessary and prompt relief. Relief provision systems that are capable of evolving from every day use and which integrate all the necessary components are required for effectively managing disasters".
