Good morning
Welcome all of you to the workshop titled “Vulnerability and Resilience”, which is a part of the projectcalled “Kobe University UNESCO Chair: :Gender and Vulnerability in Disaster Risk Reduction Support”.:Asmentioned by Prof:.: Ronni Alexander, this project is a collaboration among partners from several
institutes of 5 countries including Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Taiwan, and Thailand:.: : Mae Fah Luang
University is very pleased to host this workshop, as a partner institute,:to support the Project to move
forward and achieve the agreed goal:.:As you may know, Chiangrai Province is the area that is prone to disaster:.:In:2014, the earthquake of 6:.3
magnitude had occurred and caused damage of lives, construction, as well as properties:.:Besides thisserious earthquake, flood and landslide occur every year, which, partly, leads to the limited progress ofdevelopment in the area:.:::In addition, Chiangrai Province, as a border area, has hosted people who are migrants from neighboring
countries:.:As non-Thai and, sometimes, ethnic, they are more vulnerable to disaster:.:Some of them, incase that they stay illegally, cannot access to public services provided for affected people during
emergency and compensation for recovery and rehabilitation later:.
As being university in the area, Mae Fah Luang University has realized that it is responsibility of academic
to help affected people and support the local authority to manage the disaster and its impacts:.:
In terms of disaster management, the idea of disaster risk reduction has been promoted with an aim tosupport the country and people to protect themselves, prevent and mitigate damage caused by disaster:.:
On top of that, it also tries to strengthen local communities and authorities involved in this matter:.:In
order to do so, concrete measures which are applicable at local level are needed:.
This workshop has objectives:firstly, to share experiences of all partners related to disaster and disasterrisk reduction focusing on vulnerabilities including women, children, disable and ethnic people; secondly,
to brainstorm and create a research and action plan project for disaster resilience at the local level withemphasis on local context of each country:.:
Without support from many people and organizations, this workshop will not be materialized:.:As thehost, I would like to thank Mae Fah Luang University for financial support to this workshop:.:I also would
like to thank Kobe University for having Thailand and our university as a partner; all of our partners fromIndonesia, Malaysia, and Taiwan for your active preparation and participation:.:Lastly, my thanks andgratitude go to my staff of School of Social Innovation who enthusiastically take part in this project:.:
I am confident that this 2 day workshop will be fruitful and produce a useful output for both policy andpractical levels:.:
Thank you very much:.:5
