Bio-Hazard Disaster Risk Governance Through Multi-Agency Cooperation

Abstract

Many countries have already developed and implemented a large number of specific measures to combat natural disasters and reduce the risk of each type of disaster. The article emphasizes that biological hazards differ from other hazards in that it is difficult to predict not only when an event will occur, but also which biological agent will cause a catastrophe that will lead to a specific scenario and whether it will be natural, accidental or intentional. Thus, "biological hazard" describes a much broader and more freely defined area than in the case of hazards whose mechanisms are easier to predict.
