ethnicity and minority status effects on preparedness  

Définition

  • Participation of the entire populace in preparing for and responding to an event is imperative to minimizing harm and saving lives. Racial and ethnic minorities, defined as groups differing from the majority population by race, culture, or language, are often more vulnerable in times of disaster, yet are frequently not included in disaster plans and suffer disproportionately from adverse outcomes.
