Prof. Dr. Douglas Paton is a Professor in Psychology at the School of Psychological and Clinical Sciences at Charles Darwin University. Prof. Paton researches cross cultural theories of disaster readiness, response and recovery based on research in Australia (bushfire, flooding, tsunami), New Zealand (earthquake, volcanic, tsunami), Japan (earthquake, volcanic), Indonesia (volcanic, tsunami), Taiwan (earthquake, typhoon), Iran (earthquake) and Portugal (bushfire). The findings are used to develop community engagement and professional training programs for communities and for social services and emergency professions.

  • Disaster Risk Reduction: Integrating Community Development, Environmental Perception, and Risk Management.
  • Developing Shared Disaster Risk Reduction and Response Capability: A social network and community empowerment based approach.
  • Functional analysis of preparedness/readiness/recovery and the relative roles of person, community and societal predictors.
  • Developmental Aspects of Preparedness.
