摘要

发展中国家有大量微型和中小型企业(MSMEs)在非正规住区经营。尽管受到洪水的影响,但这些定居点大多处于危险的环境中。本研究讨论了在达累斯萨拉姆基戈戈洪水易发区非正规住区经营的企业抗灾能力方面的知识匮乏问题。研究尤其关注中小微企业。尽管全世界都在深入研究中小微企业的恢复问题,但在坦桑尼亚,这一问题却被低估了。本文将以洪灾后中小微企业的恢复为重点,弥补这一明显不足。研究方法采用定量研究设计,通过访谈填写问卷。共有 202 名中小微企业主接受了访谈。研究采用内容分析法对定性数据进行分析,并进一步采用逻辑单元模型对解释洪灾后中小微企业恢复的因素进行分析。研究显示,中小微企业的恢复与合适的业务保障计划、个人储蓄、利润(业务储蓄)和政府支持之间存在统计学意义上的显著关联。其他因素包括家人和朋友的支持、业务连续性培训、业务经营的长期性、灾前减灾措施、业务设施的严重破坏以及经营多家企业。对中小微企业所处的商业环境进行的优势、劣势、机会和威胁(SWOT)分析揭示了一些问题,为政策制定者、城市规划者和环境学家提供了信息,帮助他们了解可以采取哪些措施来加强灾后恢复,从而促进可持续发展:贡献:本研究关注了预测在易受洪水侵袭的非正规居住区经营的中小微企业灾后恢复的因素,为相关知识体系增添了新的内容。

Disaster recovery and business continuity: A case of MSMEs in Dar es Salaam.

A large number of micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in developing countries operate in informal settlements. Most of these settlements exist in hazardous environment despite being affected by floods. This research discusses the scarcity of knowledge on the resilience of businesses operating in Kigogo flood-prone informal settlements in Dar es Salaam. It especially focusses on MSMEs. Although recovery of MSMEs has been intensively studied worldwide, in Tanzania it is downgraded. This article is set to bridge this glaring gap focusing on MSMEs recovery after floods. The research methodology employed quantitative research design by completing questionnaires through interviews. A total of 202 owners of MSMEs were interviewed. While content analysis was used to analyse qualitative data, the research further employed a logistic unit model to analyse factors explaining recovery of MSMEs after floods. The study revealed a statistically significant association between the recovery of MSMEs and suitable plans for safeguarding business, personal savings, profit (saving from business) and government support. Other factors include family and friend's support, business continuity training, longevity in business operation, pre-disaster mitigation measures, critical destruction to business facilities, and running several businesses. Strength, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threat (SWOT) analysis of the business environment where MSMEs operate revealed a number of issues that inform policymakers, urban planners and environmentalists on what can be done to enhance recovery and hence promote sustainable development.

Contribution: The study adds to the body of knowledge by drawing attention to factors that predict disaster recovery of MSMEs operating in flood-prone informal settlements.
