ABSTRACT

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is facing ethical challenges as the question of who actually determines core values for all is critical to cope with new types of risks emerging from an interplay among rapid urbanization, changing climates, and unplanned urban development. Community involvement becomes a must for disaster risk reduction to address vulnerability, but community-based approaches emphasizes consensus building and stewardship too much and thus often prevent certain groups of urban population from participation. Hence, there is a call for examining whether community-based disaster risk reduction in the SDGs is open to community-driven initiatives. By adopting the Henri Lefebvre’s production of space, this article suggests a conceptual framework to examine how community-based approaches to disaster risk reduction in the SDGs have addressed spatial vulnerability as well as participation in a decision-making process.
