A REVIEW ON SOCIOECONOMIC IMPACT OF DAM-FAILURE FLOOD RISK AND SENDAI FRAMEWORK EFFECTIVENESS: ANALYSIS AND GAPS

Abstract

Dam failures leading to floods pose a global threat to communities, prompting a closer look at their socioeconomic effects. This review explores how well the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction (SFDRR 2015-2030) has been integrated into previous research as a key guideline. Existing research and practical efforts have identified gaps, particularly in understanding the correlation between dam failure and socioeconomic impact towards SFDRR effectiveness as a functional blueprint for risk mitigation. To address this gap, the present study strategically explores previous research on the role of the SFDRR in guiding the community regarding socioeconomic impact assessment. Using the content analysis method, the authors systematically analyze and evaluate the findings of scholarly articles by synthesizing past contributions and highlighting the gaps regarding SFDRR's influence towards socioeconomic impact elements. As efforts continue to enhance the effectiveness of the SFDRR, addressing these challenges becomes imperative for achieving a more comprehensive and resilient approach to disaster risk reduction. This is a critical aspect for informing policy decisions and allocating resources for effective response and prevention measures in future.
