3 Number of disasters in the world in the period (Source: EM-DAT, 2016) Number of disasters reported 10 or more people reported killed. 100 or more people reported affected. Declaration of a state of emergency. Call for international assistance. Year 3
4 Number of deaths in by continents and disaster-types. (Source: EM-DAT, 2016) x1, deaths Volcanic activity Storm Mass movement (dry) Landslide Flood Extreme temperature Earthquake 0 Total=2.15 million Africa Americas Asia Europe Oceania 4
5 Estimated economic loss due to disasters in the world in The values were converted in Estimated Damage (US$ billion) 2011 Tohoku EQ 1995 Kobe EQ 2005 Hurricane Katrina Year 2008Wenchuan EQ 5

20 Conclusions Natural disasters are the major thread of sustainable development, especially in the Asia-Pacific region. Preventable deaths and injuries should be saved through disaster reduction technologies. Social and economic disruption should be reduced through integrated disaster risk management. International collaboration toward disaster reduction considering the regional characteristics of APEC economies should be promoted. 20
