Abstract

This paper uses the case study of Yiliang“9·7” Earthquake to illustrate and analyze the folk operational mechanism for united disaster rescue under the backgrounds of advocating high-efficiency social management and constructing resource-conserving society. The NGOs are playing an ever-increasingly important role in helping the government to conduct disaster relief work in the past five years. Through the investigations and interviews from the related NGOs and workers, this study discovers that NGOs’ united disaster rescue mechanism still has certain space to be refined and the related parties should widen the range of collaboration to gain more supports. Therefore, this article is to offer practical tips for NGOs to take lessons and sum up experiences from the relief work so as to better their united disaster rescue operation mechanism. It is necessary and meaningful for NGOs to possess a more perfect rescue mechanism to enhance their overall efficiencies on disaster relief work.
