Abstract
This project explores disaster management in Thailand with a focus on the vulnerability and resilience of women, children, the elderly, and the disabled population and on the impact of disaster on these subpopulations. The 2 main findings deal with the major models of disaster management in Thailand and building resilience for social recovery. The selected 5 major models currently employed in disaster management in Thailand are the (a) model of royal project and international cooperation on disaster preparedness and response, (b) ASEAN Socio-Cultural Blueprint, (c) rights-based approach, (d) welfare mix model, and (e) knowledge management model.

Notes
The first two articles of the UDHR stand for human dignity shared by individuals regardless of race, religion, creed, nationality, social origin, or sex. Articles 3 through 19 of the UDHR refer to the first generation of civil liberties and other liberty rights. Articles 20 through 26 address the second generation of rights in reference to political, social, and economic equity. As outlined in articles 27 and 28, the third generation of rights is associated with communal and national solidarity in the late nineteenth century and early twentieth century (Ishay, Citation2004, pp. 3–5).
