▼ This thesis looked at regional disaster resilience with a specific focus on economic loss of energy infrastructure disruption from a seismic hazard impact. This thesis discusses typical damage sustained by regions from energy disruption and representative earthquake damage specific to energy infrastructure. Due to its seismic risk, geographically concentrated energy infrastructure, and state-level agencies interested in energy infrastructure resilience, Oregon was used as a selected study to model energy infrastructure disruption. The economic interdependencies of Oregon's energy infrastructure, broader critical infrastructure, and Oregon's commercial economy are determined through an Input-Output (IO) economic impact model. IMPLAN provided the economic data and model software for all of Oregon for 2008. A sector aggregation scheme was developed to represent Oregon's economy as 19 sectors with emphasis on the energy infrastructure sectors of petroleum, electricity, and natural gas. The IO developed for Oregon in 2008 can be seen in Appendix A. A representation of output of the energy infrastructure sectors was then manipulated with impact scenarios in order to represent seismic hazard damage in the seismic disaster context. 16 impact scenarios were developed with varying degrees of final demand change ranging from one or all three energy infrastructure sectors being disrupted. Direct, indirect, induced, and total changes in all sectors for output, employment, labor income, and value added for every impact scenario were then analyzed. For the largest impact scenario, a total of 3% total output change for all of Oregon as well as a minimum of 2.42 jobs would be expected to be lost for every direct job lost in the energy sectors. The sectors of transport by pipeline, mining, transport by rail, and utilities will be more impacted than other sectors in Oregon's economy due to energy infrastructure disruption. Additionally, this thesis infers electricity is more important than petroleum and natural gas to everyday life in Oregon. Petroleum is important to the production of itself, the regional economy, and the production of all other energy infrastructure sectors. Therefore, regions should strive for petroleum to be the energy sector most resistant to damage and electricity to be the energy sector able to quickly regain output to enhance regional disaster resilience with respect to energy infrastructure. IO is a good first building block for more involved economic impact models but a more representative model would allow for substitution. Future work should also develop a way to incorporate IO and impact results into a recovery model for both components of resilience (loss and recovery) to be modeled.

▼ As disaster risk increases across the globe a growing attention has been placed on how disasters and emergencies impact children and youth’s access to education. International humanitarian agencies, national governments, non-governmental organization, researchers, practitioners, and advocates have coalesced to identify strategies to address school safety in the presence of disaster risk. The Comprehensive School Safety (CSS) framework developed out of this movement. CSS aims to protect students and educators from physical harm, plans for the continuity of education, safe safeguards investments, and incorporates resilience topics into curriculum. This study uses Save the Children’s 2016 CSS Baseline Dataset to identify the presence of CSS policies within 68 countries. An inductive analysis and scoping approach were used to identify themes and trends from the data, policy documents, and supporting literature. The results indicated that overall, countries have adopted about 48% of CSS policies, with Asia Pacific countries most frequently adopting policies in comparison to the two other sampled geographic regions (Latin America/Caribbean and Africa). Further, results indicate that most countries have enacted disaster management policies that address the education sector. Most also have enacted policies for safer school construction, although far fewer have allotted lack of funding for multi-hazard risk assessment and retrofit of schools identified for reconstruction. Fewer than half limit use of schools as temporary shelters. About a quarter include climate change and disaster risk reduction in their school curriculum, but far fewer train teachers in these subjects. The results indicate that evidence of disaster impacts and advocacy are important facilitators for CSS policy development. Conversely, insufficient lack of funding and poor technical capacity tended to impede it. The results expose policy gaps and practices that require attention, and provide a measure for the degree to which CSS policies have been enacted within the sampled countries.
