May I know where you got this figure from—The spending on preparedness and detection, versus relief, tends to be massively skewed and based on public awareness (within the US, 3%, and worldwide probably more like 1%).
Also, this is a very small note if you’re bothered to fix it—there appears to be an additional word, “selected” in this paragraph—This report from the Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery (2008) is worth looking at: it adopts a strategy of allocating 80% of its funds to 20 core countries, selected
Once again, thanks for this post and the references.
