Ichsan, M.Sc Chairman of the Organizing Committee iv 2017 Conference on Health Management in Post Disaster Recovery “Strengthening Healthcare System Capacity to Disaster: Towards a Sustainable Risk Reduction” 22nd – 23rd May 2017 in Banda Aceh, Indonesia PREFACE Over the last decade, natural disaster had become more frequent. According to EM-DAT (2015), the top 5 countries which most frequently hit by natural disasters are China, United States, Philippines, Indonesia and India. From the period 2004-2013 counts three years that have resulted in a major loss of life, including the Indian Ocean tsunami in 2004 with 226,408 with deaths, the cyclone Nargis in Myanmar in 2008 with 138,366 deaths and the earthquake in Haiti in 2010 with 225,570 deaths. The challenges facing primary health care system after the disaster were many. The Indian Ocean tsunami struck on 26th December 2004, the primary public health concerns are clean drinking water, sanitation, shelter, food and medical care. Several hundred thousand displaced persons forced to shelter in numerous camps. And totally dependent for all basic human needs. Coastal regions and infrastructures in the affected countries were badly damaged that many of the social, economic and health gains that had been achieved in recent years were lost. The 12th January 2010 earthquake in Haiti also affected the health system in the country. When the disaster occurred, national authorities were not equipped to manage relief or recovery priorities. Structures of the governance were destroyed. The required services, health workers, resources, surveillance, funding and (attempts at) coordination were provided almost completely by international organisations, creating its own set of complications and delaying investments into the health system. The 11th March 2011 earthquake and tsunami in Japan had caused a massive destruction in health sector include healthcare facilities, initial shortages of food, water, aid materials and rescue teams to the affected population in a rural area. Hundred thousand of people were evacuated to shelters with no heating and suffered from freezing temperatures. The above recent major disasters exemplify the need for health systems in strengthening their capacity to respond effectively to disaster. Each disaster and its context are different. But many of them shared similar health sector vulnerabilities. Thus, common disaster management practices and policies in the health sector can be built into the health system to create disaster resilience with all type of hazards approach. The health sector has to perform an essential role in respond to all kinds of disasters, as the protection of human beings and their health is of primary importance in all emergencies situation. To provide reliable services in crisis situations, it is important to strengthen health systems. As the community are confronted by new challenges and threats to all type of hazards, our preparedness efforts have to be adapted accordingly. Essential health services must have better preparedness to respond and to function adequately in the time of disaster. v 2017 Conference on Health Management in Post Disaster Recovery “Strengthening Healthcare System Capacity to Disaster: Towards a Sustainable Risk Reduction” 22nd – 23rd May 2017 in Banda Aceh, Indonesia Lessons learnt from previous calamities clearly indicate that risk reduction efforts largely pay off in a future disaster. Preparedness programmes will be more effective if they are designed and implemented as a continuous process, based on hazards and vulnerabilities analysis. The government health institutions play a significant role in securing and coordinating public health response to a disaster. It also requires political support, including appropriate financial and human resources, to ensure that the health system is well prepared to cope with future disaster. Disaster management is a topical issue globally. Thus, countries are being encouraged to improve their preparedness towards disaster, along with growing international commitment to strengthen health systems. Unfortunately, lessons which had been identified from disasters have not been effectively collated. Besides, the essential experience is easily forgotten. To address the need to exchange knowledge and experience on ways of the health sector to handle a disaster, it is thus essential to conduct the 2017 International Conference on Health Management in Post Disaster Recovery.
