Abstract: (9 Views)
Due to the importance of hazardology strategy in the formulation of national and regional laws and guidelines, contemporary cognitive scientists specializing in hazards clarify the complexities of scientific research in this field by developing and explaining the human and natural nature of hazards through direct examination of hazardous events and scientific action. Traditional methods in disaster management are no longer sufficient for the country’s needs. It is essential to address risk reduction and disaster management strategically and fundamentally, with the participation and responsibility of all relevant sectors and organizations. This must be based on a thorough evaluation and understanding of the roots and negative impacts of all hazards and incidents, considering social factors such as meaningful and impactful public participation as a national priority. Data collection methods include library and field research. The statistical population comprises 35 individuals, including disaster management experts, as well as professors and researchers who are working on this topic. They were selected using judgmental sampling. To propose strategies, internal and external factors were identified and evaluated. To analyze the data, the SWOT method and the Quantitative Strategic Planning Matrix method was used. Based on the results of the internal factors evaluation matrix, the weaknesses in the system outweigh its strengths. Similarly, based on the results of the external factors evaluation matrix, the threats to the system are greater than its opportunities. Consequently, the community-based disaster management system of Ardabil city is in a defensive position. Therefore, in order to strengthen the community-based approach, it is necessary to plan and take action to reduce weaknesses and avoid threats. Based on the results obtained from the quantitative strategic planning matrix method, 13 strategies were ultimately obtained.
