"Community Resilience in Natural Disasters uncovers the voices of people in the eye of the storm, the swirl of tsunami waves, and the dust of the drought - people who have not only survived but joined community efforts to cope with and adapt to the crisis. These communities tell us how aid agencies, the media, and government support or weaken communities ? As natural disasters affect more and more people, the answer to this question provides vital knowledge - not just for relevant organisations but for all of us who one day may face disaster and need some help to help themselves"

This report documents the proceedings of the United Nations Committee of Experts on Public Administration during its tenth session, held at the UN Headquarters in April 2011. The session focused on public governance for improving quality of life, particularly in post-conflict and post-disaster settings, and social protection for vulnerable populations. Key topics included performance management in governance, the review of public administration programs, and innovative collaboration between experts and the Division for Public Administration. The report highlights the committee's resolutions on enhancing governance to achieve development goals, including the Millennium Development Goals, and emphasizes the importance of public administration in disaster response, climate change adaptation, and reducing social inequality. Intended for policy makers and professionals in public administration, the report offers insights into effective governance strategies and development management.
