Watch Pinky And The Brain

(52) DISASTER RESEARCH / Luis René Vallenas V.


Peru has been exposed to adverse events of great magnitude that even after two years we can observe the partial destruction of essential public services: water systems, sanitation, hospitals, among others. Clearly

preparedness and response capabilities have been severely affected and, after the disaster experience, appear those who were raised forecasts and assumptions about the vulnerability of the area, considering it too high. The concrete and real is that there is much information that is produced by humanitarian actors, real actors, which in many cases is not sufficiently analyzed, collected and systematized, and data are available.

curious thing about these aspects, which could be very important, such as studies and disaster research, is displayed publications to "surface studies" and did not respond to the reality of the facts.

Some consider that a limitation for research is the lack of instruments for collecting data and information, which allows implementation in all disasters that occur in the country, and why not say, in the region.

As an example, we mention that a German gave us a format to collect information on the performance of search and rescue teams, in order to obtain critical data that are reliable. Perhaps the results were not encouraging because of the excessive zeal of the participating institutions, and because the protagonists are struggling to reconstruct the facts.

On this point, you need to act quickly enough to the collection of data after disasters, probably there are variables and psychological factors that strongly influence and information "valuable" is very short. In that sense, it is very important to establish in advance the mechanisms or data collection system for lessons and can be used by other countries experiencing similar adverse events.

response agencies may question this approach because we all know how much you have to do when a disaster and therefore the collection of information and valuable data is not a priority, but must change in our procedures and develop protocols include this important aspect for a study or research disaster that reflects the reality of the facts, and help us to improve preparedness and disaster response.
