Abstract:

 Integrated Disaster Management is a plan for various interventions for unfavorable situations that occur beforeafter disasters. To ensure the implementation of successful disaster management, management plans have to be implemented and supported by laws for permanent solutions. Türkiye, as one of those disaster prone countries, particularly for earthquakes, created various action plans and laws at different level. One of the most important example in this regard might be the zoning amnesty that is carried out on registration of unlicensed buildings to identify them for urban transformation. However, deficiencies have appeared in practice and governance were insufficient to eliminate the threats. The Aegean Sea Earthquake affected İzmir in 2020 has brought this predicament to light once again. This study mentions disaster management and mitigation plans in Türkiye generally, and focuses on the Izmir earthquake that occurred on October 30th, 2020. It highlights inconsistency of zoning amnesty with disaster resilience.

 Bütünleşik afet yönetimi, afetlerden önce veya sonra meydana gelen olumsuz durumlara yönelik çeşitli müdahaleleri düzenleyen plandır. Başarılı bir afet yönetimi ve kalıcı çözümler için bu planlar uygulanmalı ve kanunlarla düzenlenmelidir. Özellikle deprem konusunda afete yatkın ülkelerden biri olan Türkiye, farklı düzeylerde çeşitli eylem planları ve kanunlar oluşturmuştur. Bunların en önemli örneklerinden biri, ruhsatsız yapıların tespiti ve dönüşümünün sağlanması için uygulamaya koyulan imar affıdır. Ancak bu kanunun uygulamasında eksiklikler ortaya çıkmış ve denetimler tehditleri ortadan kaldırmak için yetersiz kalmıştır. 2020 yılında İzmiri etkileyen Ege Denizi Depremi, bu açmazı bir kez daha gün yüzüne çıkarmıştır. Bu çalışma, Türkiyede genel olarak afet yönetimi ve zarar azaltma planlarını değerlendirerek, 30 Ekim 2020de meydana gelen İzmir depremine odaklanmakta ve imar affının afete dirençlilik ile tutarsızlığını vurgulamaktadır.
