Table 4 Classification parameter of different levels of NPCDP consolidation/integration
Classification parameters Features
Low level
Typology of MCDP action: MCDPs only act when there is some
emergency
Focus on response and recuperation actions (immediate actions and
post-disasters)
Civil defense infrastructure: Little civil defense infrastructure, with
no specific location for civil defense office, few equipments (cars,
automobiles) and few staff personnel available
Developed public policies typologies: disconnected, with no
integration between MCDP and municipal urban planning authorities
Medium level
Typology of MCDP action: MCDPs participate in the mitigation and
preparation process, but prevention measures are still limited
(example: only helping in the identification of sensitive areas;
participating in some commissions)
These are positive aspects but actually they do not have a role able to
change spatial planning and risk management
Civil defense infrastructure: they are well equipped but still lack
staff personnel
Developed public policies typologies: there is some integration
between MCDP and municipal urban planning authorities but the
role of each institution is still disconnected. There are few initiatives
to articulate these institutions even if in only in operational issues
High level
Typology of MCDP action: MCDP’s participate in the mitigation
and preparation process, and prevention measures. Disasters risks
are previewed in advance
Civil defense infrastructure: larger availability of equipment and
staff personnel
Developed public policies typologies: Existence of some changes in
the legal land use framework due to risk assessment. Integration
between entities is identifiable
