Exploring attitudes towards health preparedness in the Middle East and North Africa against chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear threats: A qualitative study

Journal of Contingencies and Crisis Management, Volume 32, Issue 1, March 2024.
Abstract Since 1970, Middle East and North African (MENA) countries have witnessed evolutionary industrial development and long‐running terrorist and inter‐country conflicts. Additionally, the risk of accidental, deliberate or natural chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) threats has also increased, requiring a collaborative review of ...

A jurisdictional risk assessment for the whole community: A new, systematic approach to participatory decision‐making in public health emergency preparedness using the analytic hierarchy process

Journal of Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis, Volume 31, Issue 1-2, January-April 2024.
Abstract In 2018, the New York City (NYC) Department of Health and Mental Hygiene piloted a novel jurisdictional risk assessment (JRA) for public health disasters using the analytic hierarchy process (2018 JRA‐AHP). This new approach offers a replicable and equitable model for consensus decision‐making that incorporates the complexities of disaster ...
