Abstract of Universal Design of ICT in Earthquake Emergency Management in Pakistan

            This research study is a detailed discussion about the Universal Design of ICT in Earthquake Emergency Management in Pakistan. In a situational disability, in which people also be considered as disabled for the specific situation, for example, during an earthquake, people cannot read safety precautions easily due to the shaking of the earth and several other factors, e.g. dust in the eyes. In Pakistan, people are not aware of how to deal with emergency situations such as earthquake due to the lack of awareness. That results in the loss of lives that could be saved. In this research, a system for earthquake emergency management proposed by university researchers will be designed to save the lives of people including the disabled one. Universal design has seven principles; one of those principles divides the tasks for agencies and removes the possible conflicts that can occur; for example, four different agencies all start to provide emergency shelter for the persons who become the victim of a disaster. The digital divide can be measured by measuring the gap among the cities or countries that can and cannot use new technological tools, like WIFI, 3G or 4G. The research design is an essential part of the research, and the overall findings and the results of the study are based on the research design. The authentic online resources are used to collect secondary data for this research study. In this research study, the simple random sampling method is used to collect the data from the respondents.  In this research study for the analysis and collection of the data collected from the respondents, the SPSS software was used. The results and the findings that are got from this research study are reliable because the data is collected from the authentic sites. In this research study, none of the rules and ethical principle are violated. For surveying the companies from the professionals, the permission is granted from the authorities through emails and email addresses are tracked from the companies websites.
