Pressure to restore housing quickly leads communities to rebuild in the same indefensible locations with the same materials, access limitations, and infrastructure weaknesses—reproducing the conditions that caused the original disaster.
Make post-fire rebuilding meet current wildfire, ember, access and infrastructure standards rather than restoring the previous vulnerable condition.
Offer voluntary, fair and community-informed relocation where credible analysis shows that safe evacuation and structure defense cannot be achieved.
Sustain coordinated health, housing, income and psychosocial support beyond the emergency period for people and communities affected by wildfire.
