25 Research Lead: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Hazards Management Lessons in Mississippi The Remapping of Mississippi s Coastal Floodplains: Implications for Risk Communications, Hazard Mitigation, Disaster Recovery, and Adaptation. Secondary policy impacts, migration of coastal residents, and the construction of new inland communities. The role of the design community in disaster recovery, hazard mitigation, and climate change adaptation. The adoption of new building codes and flood ordinances is not enough; these techniques should be coupled with land use measures. The Widespread use of Post-Disaster Temporary and Transitional Housing (new approach not adopted by FEMA). Creating and Sustaining a State Disaster Recovery Organization Committed to Hazards Management and Related Elements of Climate Change Adaptation.

33 The need to engage fully in disaster risk reduction has never been more pressing Disaster risk reduction is about stronger building codes, sound land use planning, better early warning systems, environmental management and evacuation plans and, above all, education. Its about making communities and individuals aware of their risks and how they can reduce their vulnerability. We have a moral, social, and economic obligation to act now in building resilient communities
