An alternative planning process
In Topic 1 we re-examined an emergency prevention and preparedness model, initially provided to you in EMG101. This model contains the four steps from risk analysis to monitoring and evaluation. In Topic 2 we discussed an emergency management planning process, and looked briefly at the steps necessary for developing such plans.
There are, however, other ways of looking at these activities. Figure 3.4, called the 'Comprehensive Planning Model', provides an alternative view.

Look at the diagram of the Comprehensive Planning Model in Fig. 3.4. In what ways does it differ from models and processes discussed in Topics 1 and 2? Write your answers down. |
