  • North America, Central America and Caribbean (2018)
    North America, Central America and Caribbean (2018) Kirsten Nakjavani Bookmiller* 1 Introduction Both slow and rapid onset natural hazard-generated events, many of them na- tional record-breaking in impact, affected all North American, Central Ameri- can and Caribbean countries leading up to and during 2018. Regardless of na- tional income level, wildfires, hurricanes, cyclones, mass flooding, earthquakes, land/mud slides and volcanic eruptions considerably strained domestic emer- gency response capacities across the three regions, and in several cases trig- gered assistance requests from neighboring countries and the international humanitarian system. Significant food insecurity caused by persistent drought conditions in Central America’s ‘Dry Corridor’ also intensified both internal displacement and outward migration rates. Against this backdrop, regional and national efforts to strengthen disaster law frameworks addressing multi-hazard challenges continued apace in 2018. Central American and Caribbean governments pursued further legal measures aimed at reducing risk and strengthening resilience, building upon multi- faceted efforts spanning over two decades. Meanwhile, Canada, Mexico and the United States (US) also took initial and unprecedented steps to address on-going legal and operational challenges related to cross-border assistance. 2 North America Despite significant exposure to a wide array of natural hazards, Canada, Mexi- co and the US have as a rule possessed sufficient domestic resources to individually respond to major national disasters, without the need for interna- tional assistance. Yet a rapid succession of crises in 2017 and 2018 has challenged * PhD in Foreign Affairs (University of Virginia); Professor, Department of Government and Center for Disaster Research and Education, Millersville University (usa); Project Lead, North American Humanitarian Response Initiative, American Red Cross; Policy Volunteer, International Services, American Red Cross.
