摘要

  1999年8月8日莫拉克颱風造成台灣多偏遠社區及部落受創嚴重,惟因應莫拉克風災過後現今「偏遠易致災地區」等地質屬性嚴重改變,為能確保每年汛期來時此地區安全顧虞及維繫村民生命財產,在社區或部落肇生災情之際,形成孤島前後交通中斷無法獲得立即性之應援救助,此時社區必須要有一支在地自主力量組織,發揮沉著穩定、積極主動、有效指揮、通信、聯絡、安定村民之效能,期能「護衛親人、守護家園」。本研究係針對災害歷史,為因應自然環境以及人文影響因素改變,新時代的社區防救災組織編成亦應隨之精進改變或更積極推動形成,實乃現今「社區自主防災」工作推動之不可輕忽重要研究課題。

ABSTRACT

  On August 8, 1999 Typhoon Morakot wrought catastrophic damage in lots of remote communities and tribes in Taiwan. Nowadays the geologic attribute of remote areas which are prone to cause hazards are intensely changed after Typhoon Morakot hit Taiwan. To maintain the property and insure the safety of the villagers in these areas during rainy seasons must establish a self-reliant and controlled organization in these local areas. It can bring its conducting, communication, correspondence and appeasing the villagers into full play and is hoped to “protect loved ones and guard the homelands" when the communities and tribes are isolated and cannot obtain immediately rescue due to traffic interruption by natural disasters. This research is focused on the history of calamities. Owing to changes of natural environments and effects of human cultures, a modern regional rescue organization has to be improved, altered and formed progressively. Nowadays creating a community disaster prevention organization is an important research and it should not be disregarded.
