Abstract:

In order to solve the problems of unclear components of community emergency response capacity in Yunnan province, lack of pertinence in countermeasures, and weak implementation, three typical communities in Yunnan Province were surveyed on the spot by means of symposium exchanges, distribution of questionnaires, mass visits and data inspections. The current situation and existing emergency response capacity building problems in various communities were discussed. Characteristics and descriptions of community emergency response capabilities in laws and regulations, industry standards and previous literature were summarized and analysed. Twenty experts were invited to seek opinions, and components of community emergency response capabilities were determined. Countermeasures to improve the emergency response capabilities of various communities in Yunnan province were put forward by comparing research status and constituent elements. The results show that among the eight components of community emergency response capabilities, overall low community emergency response capabilities, weak public residents' safety awareness, and lack of emergency rescue teams are the main factors. The system of community emergency management should be established and improved, and the community emergency supplies and funds should be increased.
