영문 초록

This research study aims to examine who vulnerable people are on disaster & emergency situations in South Korea. There are various vulnerable people such as children, senior citizen, the disabled and foreigners. I choose foreigners who live in South Korea as vulnerable group among them because there would be no system and study for helping foreigners on the situations, comparing to other vulnerable groups. Foreigners' residents often could have accidents from disaster and emergency situations because they live in South Korea for long time and various places such as factory, farmland, fishery and so on. To solve these problems, we should be willing to cope with emergencies for foreigners' residents. First of all, it is necessary that a variety of educations and promotions should be a prerequisite to foreign residents' easy access to safety. As well, revitalizing a variety of communities, we need to figure out a way to cope with emergent disasters. This study will present some preparations to solve the problems, as exhibited in the following. First, multilingual emergency disaster & emergency services applications. Second, foreign residents provide disaster & emergency related promotional media. Third, education and social institutions established disaster & emergency. Forth, selection foreign volunteer firefighters. The research being sought by this study is a set of findings that contribute to the development of practical and realistic policy recommendations which may be used for disaster & emergency management practitioners, as well as policy and decision makers at all level.
