The document defines risk management as a 5-step process that includes identifying hazards, assessing vulnerability, assessing risk, analyzing impacts, and transferring assessments to a risk management sheet. It explains each step in detail. Hazard identification involves defining potential hazards and their characteristics. Vulnerability assessment identifies elements at risk and why, combining hazard information with an inventory of exposed property and population. Risk assessment evaluates the likelihood of an event occurring and who and what would be affected. Impact analysis examines social, environmental, economic and political consequences by matching impacts to vulnerabilities. All assessments are then documented on a risk management sheet for action planning.
Risk affects every aspect of an organization. The effects of risk are not
confined within any predictable boundaries; a single event can easily
influence several areas of an organization at once, producing consequences
far beyond the immediate impact. The pervasiveness and complexity of risk
presents strong challenges to managers, one of the most important being
the coordination of risk management across areas within the organization.

Risk management is the process of identifying, assessing and controlling threats to an organization's capital and earnings. These threats, or risks, could stem from a wide variety of sources, including financial uncertainty, legal liabilities, strategic management errors, accidents and natural disasters
Risks which are not capable of avoidance, prevention, reduction to a large extent or assumption may be transferred from one party to the other party. The basic objective of insurance is to transfer the risk of a person to the insurance company which has easily spread it over a large number of persons insuring similar risks. As such, for handling risks which involve large financial losses or which are dangerous, insurance is a means of shifting such risks in consideration of a nominal cost called premium.

A key concept on the subject DRRR. This entails the definition of vulnerability, types of vulnerability and the key concepts of vulnerability. A summary definition of risk and hazard are also observable.
Vulnerability describes the characteristics and circumstances of a community, system or asset that make it susceptible to the damaging effects of a hazard. There are many aspects of vulnerability, arising from various physical, social, economic, and environmental factors.
The probability that a community’s structure or geographic area is to be damaged or disrupted by the impact of a particular hazard, on account of their nature, construction, and proximity to a hazardous area.
Coping Capacity is the ability of people, organizations and systems, using available skills and resources, to face and manage adverse conditions, emergencies or disasters.
Needs for Disaster Risks Reduction Education in Nigeriaiosrjce
This paper reviews disaster risk reduction and the need to involve disaster education in educational institutions
curriculum for sustainable quality education. Disaster encompass serious disruption of the functioning of society causing
wide spread human, material, economic, or environmental losses which exceeds the ability of the affected community to
cope, using its own resources. Rising concern on disaster risks in all countries is evidenced in the number of major disasters
and the amount of losses sustained there-from have been on the increase. Framework of Action (HFA) stresses the “use of
knowledge, innovation and education to build a culture of safety and resilience.” This paper advocates turning human
knowledge into local action to reduce disaster risks. The basic principles should outline the general objectives and scope of
disaster risks reduction at schools and educational materials to teach all stages of disaster risks reduction through quality
education.

Week One – Risk and the All Hazards Approach
It seems logical for a course dedicated to the examination of risks, threats and consequences to begin the first segment with addressing the definitions of those terms. They are not as well understood as some might think. So, what are risks, threats and consequences, and how do they apply to the homeland security field?
Let us first establish that homeland security is not a sole function or responsibility of the federal government. It is a collaborative effort of all levels of governments (federal, state, tribal, county and municipal), the private sector, non-governmental organizations (NGOs) such as the American Red Cross, as well as the public at large. As we look at risk, threats and consequences, we will do so from the perspective of these various levels of government and throughout the entire breath of both the public and private sectors (DHS, 2011).
So exactly what is risk? The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) defines risk in the 2014 Quadrennial Homeland Security Review as a, “function of the likelihood and potential impacts of different homeland security threats and hazards” (DHS, 2014, p. 15). In order to address the issue of risk in a planned and proactive manner, a formula has been developed by DHS and is utilized by those within the homeland security enterprise. This formula is written as: R (risk) = T (threat) x V (vulnerability) x C (consequence). This formula has been transformed and updated throughout the years in order to address the ever-changing landscape of homeland security. Yet, even in its current form, many feel it has an inherent difficulty in that it implies a strict mathematical function can be taken to address the many hazards our country faces; wherein numeric representations of threat, vulnerability and consequences are simply multiplied with one another. No such function exists; but the formula does serve a very useful purpose in displaying the concept that risk is a composite element of various components and factors that must be considered both independently and collectively. Therefore, by combining this formula and the definition noted earlier, we see that risk is determined by the likelihood that a threat (or hazard) will occur, and by the impact that threat will have on a community. In addition, impact (also defined as consequences) is directly impacted by a community’s vulnerability to that threat; where areas of weakness are in turn determined by a community’s ability to protect itself against the threat, respond to it when necessary, as well as recovering from such an incident in both an effective, expedient, and efficient manner.
When looking at risk from the perspective of a specific geographic location (town, municipality, county, state, nation), risk is simply a composite of all of the threats, vulnerabilities and capabilities that are found in that location (hereto noted as community). Therefore, an appropriate point in which to start i.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

RISK MANAGEMENT PROCESS
1. Disaster Management (5584)-2020
RISK MANAGEMENT PROCESS
UNESCO (2010) defines Risk as “The probability of harmful consequences, or expected losses (deaths,
injuries, property, livelihoods, economic activity disrupted or environment damaged) resulting from
interactions between natural or human-induced hazards and vulnerable conditions. Conventionally risk is
expressed by the notation…”
Risk = Hazards x Vulnerability
“Some disciplines also include the concept of exposure to refer particularly to the physical aspects of
vulnerability. Beyond expressing a possibility of physical harm, it is crucial to recognize that risks are
inherent or can be created or exist within social systems. It is important to consider the social contexts in
which risks occur and that people therefore do not necessarily share the same perceptions of risk and their
underlying causes.” (UNESCO, 2010)
“Risk is the chance or likelihood that a hazard will occur, and the exposure of human population and assets
to such a hazard. Risk is not only the probability that a hazard will occur, but also is dependent on the
probability and possibility of exposure to that potential hazard. Risks are quantifiable and measurable over
a specified time period.” They could be: (COL. 2004)
health risks
safety
security risks
environmental risks
public welfare risks or
financial risk.
Risk is a function of hazard intensity and vulnerability. It is determined by exposure potential (or avenues
of contact) and characteristics of exposed human beings and assets (receptors), and their capacity to
manage or resist the impacts of the hazards. Risk is often measured using the following formula:
Risk =
Probability (likelihood of occurrence) x Consequence (expected loss)
Capacity to manage
The fundamental difference between hazards and risks is that a hazard is an agent that has the potential to
cause harm and is a source of risk, while risk is the possibility of a hazard occurring, and it’s potential to
cause harm over a period of time.
“Disaster Risk Management is the application of disaster risk reduction policies and strategies, to prevent
new disaster risks, reduce existing disaster risks, and manage residual risks, contributing to the
strengthening of resilience and reduction of losses. Disaster risk management actions can be categorized
into; prospective disaster risk management, corrective disaster risk management and compensatory disaster
risk management (also referred to as residual risk management).
RISK MANAGEMENT PROCESS
Risk management is a five-step process. (Figure 1)
Step 1: Hazards Identification
Step 2: Vulnerability assessment
Step 3: Risk assessment
Step 4: Impact analysis- Examining the impacts
Step 5: Transfer all assessments to the risk management sheet
2. Disaster Management (5584)-2020
Step 1: Hazards Identification:
The process of defining and describing potential hazards is called hazard identification. Hazards may be…
natural or human-induced.
internal or external.
predictable or sudden.
For the purpose of risk assessment, hazard identification would involve hazard assessment and analysis.
Hazard assessment is the process of defining a hazard’s physical characteristics, causative factors,
probability and frequency of occurrence, magnitude and severity, and locations of likely occurrence. The
basis of hazard assessment could be historical data, hazard mapping, or physical characteristics of land, soil
and climate (for natural hazards), and operations, maintenance and safety systems within large industrial
setups.
Step 2: Vulnerability assessment:
Vulnerability means assessing the threats from potential hazards to the population and to
infrastructure. (Wikipedia, 2019)
Vulnerability Assessment: Identify what elements are at risk and why (refer to unsafe conditions,
dynamic pressures and root causes). (NDMA, 2010)
3. Disaster Management (5584)-2020
“Vulnerability assessment is the second level of hazard assessment combines the information from the
hazard identification with an inventory of the existing property and population exposed to a hazard. It
provides information on who and what are vulnerable to a natural hazard within the geographic areas
defined by hazard identification. Vulnerability assessment can also estimate damage and casualties that will
result from various intensities of the hazard.”(NDMA, 2010)
Vulnerability or susceptibility could be any one (or combination) of the following and their exposure to the
hazard:
people
assets
preparedness
time
Vulnerability is measured as low, medium or high depending upon the combination of the above
factors. (COL, 2004)
Step 3: Risk assessment:
When assessing risks first assess the likelihood of a hazardous event occurring and then assess who
and what would be affected and to what extent. Following tools and techniques can be used to assess
risk:
Hazard maps: to identify the exposure levels, exposed areas and populations.
Historical data: identifying how many times the hazard has affected the same setting in the
past and by conducting a probability analysis to assess the possibility of it occurring again
during the current or subsequent years. Historical data or predictions could be used to
estimate certainty of occurrence of hazard.
Determine the risk factors for each exposed valued commodity such as buildings, facilities
and density of the population affected in the likely hazard area.
Acceptance of risk: Level of acceptance of risk would vary from the kind of hazard and the
vulnerability of the exposed populations and valuables. (COL, 2004)
Step 4: Impact analysis
Examining the impacts: Impact analysis may also be termed as loss estimation. Impacts may
be: social, environmental, economic and political.
Match the impacts to the vulnerabilities: for example social impact would be the number of
deaths, injuries, homelessness, family dislocation and disintegration of social fabrics etc.;
Environmental impact would be quality and quantity of soil; Economic impact would be
destruction of crops; Political impact would be public perception of blame, etc.
Hazard vulnerability mapping: spatial maps can be drawn identifying the highest zones of risk
due to different hazards. These zones can be coloured differently to match the high-risk areas
for a specific hazard. (COL, 2004)
Step 5: Transfer all assessments to the risk management sheet:
Risk analysis transferred to a recapitulation sheet (Table 1) provides sufficient information for action
planning with the most vulnerable spot that would be at greatest risk from a specific hazard. (COL,
2004)
