| Research Abstract |
Resettlement process in Miyagi Prefecture, Banda Aceh in Indonesia, Galle city in Sri Lanka and Wenchuan County in Chinese Sichuan Province was investigated in this project. Literature and field surveys were carried out. Based on the investigation, this study records the following observations. Resettlement from low to higher ground is one of the approaches in creating tsunami-resilient community. Although resettlement is very important, some of considerations, such as social cultural, economic and policy context need to be addressed before implementing the policy. Residents participatory planning is a key success in creating tsunami-resilient community. Social cultural dimension, such as experience and awareness in facing tsunami, customs and beliefs of the disaster-affected people, are very important factors to be considered in planning. Resettlement adversely affects the occupation of disaster-affected people, hence, this factor should be given much attention of decision makers.
