abstract="The growing appreciation of mitigation is highlighting the need to develop a better understanding of what makes some people more vulnerable to the impacts of a disaster. Health researchers have asked a similar question regarding the varying vulnerability to illness within a population. This has lead to the identification of a set of social, physical and economic factors that are now referred to as the determinants of health. These factors are the same as those commonly associated with disaster vulnerability. Recognizing that these same concepts are being applied in both the health and disaster management contexts presents an opportunity to also achieve a shared objective of reducing vulnerability within a population.   <p>Language: en</p>",
