Overview of current landscape of disasters in South Africa

Résumé

With the global burden of disasters increasing in frequency and severity, it is essential that all countries explore and identify effective disaster risk reduction strategies. South Africa is especially vulnerable to the disastrous effects of climate change. Despite the development of landmark disaster policies over 20 years ago, equitable implementation strategies across South Africa remain lacking. This paper explores the current landscape of disasters and disaster reduction strategies within South Africa, as well as the current state of the nursing workforce, including curricula development, and international collaboration.
