One of the major challenge from unplanned growth in the cities is the fire incidents posing a serious threat to life and property. Delhi, the capital city of India, has seen unplanned growth of colonies resulting in a serious concern for the relevant agencies. This paper investigates the relation between potential causes of fire incidents during 2013-2016 in South-West Delhi Division of Delhi Fire Services as part of risk analysis using the data about fire stations & their jurisdictions, incidents of fire, water reservoirs available, landuse and population data along with the divisional & sub-divisional boundaries of South-West Delhi division under Delhi Fire Service. Statistical and Geospatial tools have been used together to perform the risk analysis. The analysis reveals that difference in actual occupancy and defined landuse as a part of unplanned growth of settlements is found to be the main reason behind the major fire incidents. The suggested mitigation measures focus on legal, policy, physical & technological aspects and highlight the need to bring the systemic changes with changing scenario of demographics and infrastructure to accommodate more aspects of ground reality.

Emergency management is one of the priorities of the contemporary universities, because of the risks faced by the university work of academic and technical fields. This risk may be the result of the nature of the work done by the human element or of natural disasters or through the risks integrated between them. The study aimed to determine the availability of security and safety procedures in the Islamic University facilities in the Gaza, Palestine. Also, to prepare proposed scenarios for emergency management based on risk assumptions. The study used the descriptive and analytical methodologies of the situation in laboratory facilities and engineering workshops by using the interview tool with the emergency specialists in the safety and security committee. The most important results of the study were that the security and safety standards of the Islamic University are not directly defined by international, regional or national standards, but the necessary requirements are deducted from the University. Also, the risks that threaten the University include: fire risk, the risk of explosions, the risk of bombing, mechanical hazards and human hazards, where the risk of fire is most likely. The study recommended the need to form an emergency committee to include all faculties in the University and work to determine the responsibilities accurately, also prepare a guide to educate students and staff of the threats of risks at the Islamic University, and the formation of a specialized team to evacuate facilities and evacuate the special needs in the event of an emergency. Keywords: The Islamic University-Gaza, Emergency, Risk, Security and Safety, Emergency Response. --------------------------------------------- تعد إدارة الطوارئ من الأولويات لدى الجامعات المعاصرة؛ وذلك لما يتعرض له العمل الجامعي من مخاطر في المجالات الأكاديمية والفنية، وهذا الخطر قد يكون ناتجاً عن طبيعة العمل الذي يقوم به العنصر البشري أو من الكوارث الطبيعية أو من خلال المخاطر المدمجة بينها. هدفت الدراسة إلى تحديد مدى توافر إجراءات الأمن والسلامة في مرافق الجامعة الإسلامية بغزة، فلسطين، مع إعداد سيناريوهات مقترحة لإدارة الطوارئ في الجامعة الإسلامية بناءً على فرضيات الخطر. وتم استخدام المنهج الوصفي والمنهج التحليلي للوضع القائم في المرافق المخبرية والمشاغل الهندسية, وذلك من خلال استخدام أداة المقابلة مع المختصين في مجال الطوارئ في لجنة الأمن و السلامة. كانت أهم نتائج الدراسة أن معايير الأمن والسلامة المتبعة في الجامعة الإسلامية غير محددة بشكل مباشر من المعايير الدولية أو الإقليمية أو الوطنية، ولكن يتم استقطاع ما يلزم الجامعة منها، كذلك المخاطر التي تهدد الجامعة الإسلامية تشمل خطر الحريق، وخطر الانفجارات، وخطر القصف، والأخطار الميكانيكية, والمخاطر البشرية بحيث تعتبر مخاطر الحريق الأكثر احتمالاً. وقد أوصت الدراسة بضرورة تشكيل لجنة طوارئ تشمل كل الكليات في الجامعة, وتحديد المسئوليات بها بدقة، وإعداد دليل إرشادي معلن للتوعية الطلبة والعاملين من المخاطر التي تهدد الجامعة، وتشكيل فريق متخصص لإخلاء المرافق وإخلاء ذوي الاحتياجات الخاصة في حالة حدوث طارئ. الكلمات المفتاحية: الجامعة الإسلامية بغزة، إدارة الطوارئ، المخاطر، الأمن والسلامة، الاستجابة للطوارئ.
