Bezbednost učenika od posledica prirodnih katastrofa u školskim objektima

Cvetković, V., Janković, B., & Milojković, S. (2016). Bezbednost učenika od posledica prirodnih katastrofa u školskim objektima [Safety of students from consequences of natural disasters in school facilities]. Ecologica, 23(84), 809–815. Bezbednost učenika od posledica prirodnih katastrofa u školskim objektima   Vladimir M. Cvetković[1], Bojan Janković1, Saša Milojević1   Sažetak: U radu su izneti rezultati kvantitativnog istraživanja percepcije učenika srednjih škola o njihovoj bezbednosti u školskim objektima za vreme prirodnih katastrofa. Autori koriste metod anketiranja učenika kako bi identifikovali i opisali faktore koji utiču na percepciju bezbednosti učenika. Iz ukupne populacije učenika srednjih škola u Beogradu, za potrebe ovog istraživanja izvučen je uzorak veličine 3.063 učenika, što čini 4.67% populacije. Iz populacije od 101 Beogradske srednje škole na slučajan način izabrano je njih 13. Rezultati istraživanja pokazuju da se 40,2% učenika oseća bezbedno, 37,8% nije sigurno i 21,8% ističe da se oseća nebezbedno u školskim objektima kada su u pitanju posledice prirodnih katastrofa. Nadalje, rezultati ispitivanja uticaja određenih faktora na percepciju bezbednosti učenika pokazuju da postoji statistički značajna povezanost sa promenljivama – pol, obrazovanje majke, obrazovanje oca, ostvarena prosečna ocena, dok takva povezanost nije utvrđena sa promenljivama – zaposlenost roditelja, živi sa ocem, sa majkom, dedom i babom. Istraživanje se bazira na područje Beograda, tako da se zaključci mogu generalizovati samo na populaciju učenika srednjih škola na tom području. Rezultati istraživanja se mogu iskoristiti prilikom kreiranja strategija unapređenja bezbednosti učenika u školskim objektima od posledica prirodnih katastrofa. Ključne reči: bezbednost, prirodne katastrofe, učenici, škola, anketiranje, Beograd. UVOD Porast broja i ozbiljnosti posledica prirodnih katastrofa uslovljava bolju pripremljenost ljudi i objekata od vitalnog interesa za funkcionisanje društva [1-3]. Prirodne katastrofe se više ne posmatraju samo kao pretnja po bezbednost ljudi, već i kao ozbiljna pretnja nacionalnoj bezbednosti [4, 5]. U teoriji katastrofa postoje raznovrsni radovi koji u fokusu svog predmeta istraživanja […]

Уводна разматрања Један од најозбиљнијих изазова савременог друштва јесте недостатак свести о присуству различитих опасности и могућно- стима утицаја на њих (Кековић et al., 2011:17). Међу опасностима које значајно угрожавају људе, материјална и културна добра и животну средину издвајају се екстремне метеоролошке појаве које постају, у последње време, веома важна карика у развоју сваког друштва и оне узимају у обзир: сушу, поплаве и пратеће појаве клизишта, непогоде, циклоне и торнада, океанске таласе, топлотне и хладне таласе (Begović, 2011:121). Међу наведенe екстремнe метеоролошкe појавe које перманентно угрожавају национални геопростор (нарочито у posledwih 10 година) спадају поплаве чије последице проузрокоју катастрофе које се начелно могу посматрати као резултат заоштравања супротности између друштва и природе (брзи раст насеља у плавним зонама, неконтролисана експлоатација шума, неправилан начин обрађивања пољопривредног земљишта, неправилно одлагање комуналног отпада и др.).

Cvetković, Boban Milojković, Dragan Mlađan, Slobodan Miladinović The Academy of Criminalistic and Police Studies, Cara Dušana 196, Belgrade, Serbia; vladimir.cvetkovic@kpa.edu.rs Danube as an international naviga- ble river in Serbia and water main roads of central and southeastern Europe, de- spite all of its advantages it contains one of the kind of components suitable for performing criminal activities (gener- al, economic and organized crime and terrorism). Also, it can happen flood- ing, traffic accidents, fires and accidents that require the involvement of special- ly trained first responders. In addition, the specificity of the police work aimed at achieving security of the Danube, di- rectly contributed to the development of police organization and in this segment. It is, therefore, a separate organization- al unit of Serbian police such as river po- lice, border police, gendarmerie special- ized units (divers) and fire-rescue units with fire boats, trained and equipped in order to take preventive and repressive measures and actions in order to pre- serve security on the Danube and the actions of protection and rescue of peo- ple, material and cultural resources and the environment. Considering the international, cross- border, security-protective, water man- agement, transport, tourism, sports and recreation, hunting and other issues on the river Danube, the authors present the possibility of an integrated security man- agement at international navigable riv- ers. Specifically, the paper introduced the modern concept of the security manage- ment of the overall creative and destruc- tive anthropogenic and natural phenom- ena and processes that are […]

Knowledge of secondary school students in Belgrade as an element of flood preparedness

Cvetković, V., Lipovac, M., & Milojković, B. (2016). Knowledge of secondary school students in Belgrade as an element of flood preparedness. Journal for Social Sciences, TEME, 15(4), 1259–1273. KNOWLEDGE OF SECONDARY SCHOOL STUDENTS IN BELGRADE AS AN ELEMENT OF FLOOD PREPAREDNESS Vladimir M. Cvetković1*, Milan Lipovac2, Boban Milojković1 1The Academy of Criminalistic and Police Studies, Belgrade, Serbia 2University of Belgrade, Faculty of Security Studies, Belgrade, Serbia *vladimir.cvetkovic@kpa.edu.rs Abstract The consequences of the floods that inundated the territory of Serbia in 2014 indicated a high level of citizen unpreparedness to respond to the situation. Starting from this fact, the basic idea of this research is to examine the level and correlation of certain factors with the students’ knowledge about floods as natural disasters. The aim of the research is a scientific explanation of the correlation between students’ knowledge about floods and these factors. The research consisted of a survey conducted on a sample of 3,498 respondents who make up 8.96% of the students population. The respondents were students from 19 secondary schools, out of a total of 54 at the territory of 11 affected municipalities of the city of Belgrade. The research results suggest that flood related knowledge is influenced by the students’ gender, education and employment status of parents, education acquired in school and in the family, while the knowledge of safety procedures for responding to floods is influenced by fear, gender and the educational level of parents. These results can be used in creating educational programme strategies to enhancing preparedness for response. Key words: natural disasters, floods preparedness, secondary schools, knowledge, Belgrade.

Cvetković, MSc1 The Academy of Criminalistic and Police Studies, Belgrade, Serbia Aleksandar Ivanov, PhD Faculty of Security, Skopje, Macedonia Boban Milojković, PhD The Academy of Criminalistic and Police Studies, Belgrade, Serbia Abstract: In this paper that presents the quantitative study, authors examined the influence of parenthood on the citizen preparedness to respond to natural disasters caused by floods in the Republic of Serbia. Taking into account all municipalities in Serbia in which there are risks of flooding, 19 of these were randomly selected. The research in selected municipalities was undertaken in those areas and households that have been or are potentially the most vulnerable in relation to the level of high water with the use of a multi-stage random sample. The test method based on the technique of interviewing was applied in the research. The research results indicate that heavy rains encourage parents in higher percents to think about preparedness for responding in relation to citizens who are not parents. Parents to a greater extent as the reasons for not taking preventive measures point out that their assistance in this matter would not mean much, that they expect the citizens from flood-affected areas to be primarily engaged in actions of protection and rescue, then they know the safety procedures for response and they would be to a greater extent evacuated in friends’ places, etc. In domestic theory on disasters, there have been insufficient experimental researches, while at the same there are […]

COOPERATION OF SOUTH-EAST EUROPEAN COUNTRIES IN EMERGENCY SITUATIONS Dr.sc. Dragan Mladjan, e-mail: dragan.mladjan@kpa.edu.rs Dr.sc. Boban Milojkovic, e-mail: boban.milojkovic@kpa.edu.rs Ivan Baras, dipl. inž. e-mail: ivan.baras@mup.gov.rs Vladimir Cvetković, MA e-mail: vladimir.cvetkovic@kpa.edu.rs Academy of Criminalistic and Police Studies- Belgrade, Serbia Sector for Emergency Management of the Ministry of Interior of the Republic of Serbia Abstract Emergency situations do not recognize national borders and often acquire regional and global character. South-East European countries are permanently exposed to various emergency situations, such as earthquakes, floods, snow storms, droughts, forest fires etc. In certain cases, these countries are incapable to cope with catastrophic consequences of these emergencies with their own capacities, but are forced to seek help from their neighbours or international organizations. Possible means of help and cooperation demand internationally institutionalized, coordinated and adequate answer of available forces and means by all subjects of protection and rescue before, during and after the occurrences of emergency situations. In this respect, international-legal foundation of cooperation and offering help to the South-East European countries in cases of emergencies and operations of humanitarian nature are firstly observed. After that, important international organizations and associations which, helped by legal platform, realize different aspects of regional cooperation of South-East European countries at eliminating consequences of emergency situations, as well as numerous regional initiatives and strategies for reduction and estimation risks from emergencies were analysed.   1 This paper was realized as a part of the project “Studying climate change and its influence on the environment: impacts, adaptation and mitigation” (43007) financed by the Ministry of Education and Science of the Republic of Serbia within the framework of integrated and interdisciplinary research for the period 2011 – 2014.

Thus, in this paper we analyze the phenomenology of climate change that is brought into direct/indirect relationship with endangering the safety of human, material and cultural resources and the environment at the national and global levels. The paper also analyzes the impacts of climate change on increasing disaster risk, that every day increasingly destructive endangers the safety of people both by work and by nature of created value. At the end of the paper, the effects of climate change on water resources are presented. In conclusion, the authors point out that climate change is a reality that presents a significant security risk and a challenge, which have caused: the reduction of energy access, food availability, increased frequency and intensity of catastrophic natural disasters, population displacement, increasing public health problems, and lack of health safe drinking water. In addition, they actualize the idea that climate change poses a serious threat to national security and defense of the country, which was matter dealt mostly by activists and environmental experts in the field. However, lately climate change is beginning to be a subject of interest of politicians and security officials around the world. Keywords: climate change, predictions, […]

Последице су веома често разорне по живот, здравље и имовину људи, али такође и по без- бедност државе и читаве међународне заједнице. Земљотреси (тру- сови) припадају групи геофизичких природних катастрофа и дешава- ју се врло често, с тим што је највећи број слабијег интензитета. Снажнији земљотреси могу да проузрокују велику материјалну ште- ту и озбиљне последице по живот људи, настајањем пукотина у Зе- мљиној кори, потресом тла, поплавама, ослобађањем опасних мате- рија и сл. У том смислу, ради ефективније и ефикасније заштите и реаговања у ванредним ситуацијама изазваним штетним дејством сеизмичких таласа, потребно је, између осталог, свеобухватно ис- тражити овај природни феномен, тако да ће предмет овог рада бити форма, последице, временски и геопросторни распоред испољава- ња земљотреса.
