Définition(s)

  • The term differential vulnerabilities to hazards refers to the differences in impacts of various types of hazards on different segments of society, which are often related to class, gender, ability and disability, race, age, and geographic location. For example, the greatest users of electricity are the wealthy, but the places of extraction and power plants are not normally near them.
