Abstract

In this paper, we tried to classify resettlement after natural disasters from the view point of continuity of household-relationship and owner/user-relationship of housing site before and after housing relocation. Firstly, we tried to develop a framework to analyze resettlement by household-relationship and owner/user-relationship of housing site. Secondly, in order to certificate the effectiveness of the framework, we tried to apply the framework to the case of resettlement of 66 households in the settlement called "Watta" in Weligama, Sri Lanka after the Sumatra earthquake and Indian Ocean Tsunami in 2004. As the result of this analysis we found 3 typical types of resettlement and found out characteristics and issues of each type.
