The estimated loss in South Eastern Europe is around 34.425.270.000 $

Total number of people affected is

8.022.050,

The death toll:

23.864

cent of the disasters; around 20 per cent lack information on the total number of people

affected, and about 70 per cent do not cover economic damages”

Vacuum effect: are not lim

ited to the first impact, the consecutive secondary after

effects, such as loss of jobs, diversion of business interest, social and psychological

effects usually creates a “vacuum effect”in the disaster hit areas and destroy the lives of

inhabitants in long term
