In page Disaster:

"

UNDRO (1984) defined a disaster in a more qualitative fashion as:[5] "an event, concentrated in time and space, in which a community undergoes severe danger and incurs such losses to its members and physical appurtenances that the social structure is disrupted and the fulfilment of all or some of the essential functions of the society is prevented." Like other definitions this looks beyond the social aspects of the disaster impacts. It also focuses on losses. This raises the need for emergency response as an aspect of the disaster.[6] It does not set out quantitative thresholds or scales for damage, death, or injury.[citation needed]
