Abstract

China is highly susceptible to natural disasters, which cause widespread residential displacement and have long-lasting consequences on affected communities, emphasizing the importance of effective post-disaster housing reconstruction. This study aims to explore the barriers affecting post-disaster housing reconstruction in China. The research objectives include: (1) establishing a framework for the reconstruction process, (2) identifying and analyzing the barriers through a comprehensive literature review, and (3) categorizing the barriers based on the reconstruction framework. The workflow of post-disaster housing reconstruction is divided into five stages: disaster prevention and mitigation in pre-disaster areas, housing damage assessment, post-disaster housing reconstruction planning, coordination, and implementation. This research contributes to a more comprehensive understanding of the factors influencing post-disaster housing reconstruction in China, ultimately promoting resilience and sustainable development in affected areas. The findings will assist decision-makers in identifying key barriers and success factors that significantly influence the recovery process, thereby improving the overall efficiency and effectiveness of post-disaster housing reconstruction efforts in China.
