The Institute of Law, Emergencies and Disasters (LEAD) brings together a cluster of multi-disciplinary researchers based at Kaupeka Ture l聽Faculty聽of Law,聽蜜桃儿直播, working on all aspects of law, governance and disasters.
Disasters are social phenomena, caused by society鈥檚 inability to cope with hazards. These hazards come in many forms, both natural and man-made. 聽What makes a disaster is not the event itself but the impact that it causes. At the heart of society鈥檚 ability to respond, prepare for and recover from disasters, is law.
For this reason, the LEAD Institute brings together a group of experts from a wide range of disciplines who work on the impact of hazards on aspects of law and systems of governance. Researchers within the group engage in a broad range of research examining both the impact of law on disasters and the legal mechanisms designed to respond to hazards. This research cuts across the traditional disciplines of legal study, engaging with both international and domestic legal frameworks (in New 蜜桃儿直播 and overseas).
The group has connections with a global network of disaster law experts and has strong links both聽聽and domestically with academics from various related disciplines. The group also engages with a range of stakeholders in local and central government as well as NGOs, businesses, the legal profession and the wider community.
