Multiple Participation in Emergency Management in Rural Communities:A Perspective of Technological Empowerment
Risks in rural communities are superimposed,and the coexistence of multiple disaster-causing factors can easily trigger systemic crises,resulting in the frequent occurrence of compound disasters.However,inadequate publicity and training,an unsophisticated emergency response mechanism,and insufficient information sharing hinder the effective participation of multiple subjects in rural community emergency management.This manifests in vulnerabilities,such as weak crisis awareness,insufficient emergency response capacities,and poor communication and cooperation capabilities.However,the potential of technology offers a transformative avenue.Its inherent abilities to improve collective consciousness,to streamline emergency response efficiency,and to bolster multiple coordination,create an opportunity for the participation of multiple subjects in rural community emergency management.By deeply embedding technology in the entire framework for rural community emergency management,we can promote crisis awareness by enhanced theoretical and technical training,refine emergency response mechanism to enhance its response capabilities,and widen information coordination pathways.These efforts aim to mitigate vulnerabilities,increase the resilience of rural communities,and foster the development of sponge communities.
