Disaster Resilience Watch: Japan
Disaster Resilience Watch is a global collaboration between Tulane University Law School's Disaster Resilience Leadership Academy (DRLA), a program within the Payson Center for International Development, and local institutions in disaster impacted and/or disaster vulnerable communities, that provides systematic analysis of data and information in order to support strategic decision making and resource allocation in all phases of disaster preparation, response, and recovery.
Disaster Resilience Watch is a platform dedicated to the collection, monitoring, analysis, reporting and diffusion of strategic information that accents immediate needs with a long term and sustained focus on building resilience.
Disaster Resilience Watch leverage traditional sources of information and data (host country, non-governmental-organizations, United Nations reports/assessments/evaluations) as well as real-time data streams generated by new media platforms and social networks such as Twitter, YouTube and Ushahidi.
