Recently, natural disasters with devastating effects on human settlements have proliferated. In light of this fact, this study aims at searching for the possibility of designing a disaster resilience model for urban settlements. Since urban settlements are habitats of human beings where are densely populated and constructed, they have high natural disaster risks. Unless the new planning strategies integrated with disaster mitigation approaches are not applied into the urbanization process, urban settlements unfortunately will still have high natural disaster risks.
