Tearfund believes that new thinking and action is urgently required by the international
community. Thousands of lives could be saved each year in developing countries and
millions of pounds made to go further, if more emphasis was placed by governments, local
authorities and relief and development agencies on helping vulnerable communities reduce
the risks of disaster.
