研究者本身從事消防救災工作多年，有鑑於近年來，氣候變遷所帶來的複合式災害越來越嚴重，消防救災人力明顯不足，且在有限的資源下如何結合公私部門、積極運用第三造消防人力參與救難救災，濟民眾之危、解民眾之困苦，為研究者所深思。就近年來台灣莫拉克風災與東日本大地震、美國桑迪颶風所帶來災害後，政府與民間組織、社區、民眾之間的協力關係與參與救災的經驗有無需要反省與檢討的地方？或者政府與組織（第三造消防人力）內部有無整合，這更是研究者所想要進一步了解與探究之處。

The researcher has been engaged in fire fighting for many years. In respect that the compound disaster has been becoming more and more serious in recent years, the manpower in relieving disaster is insufficient. Within the limited resources, how to integrate government and private organizations, and effectively utilize the third-party fire fighting in relieving disaster and helping the disaster victims has been the researcher's main concern. Typhoon Morakot in Taiwan, Great East Japan Earthquake, and Hurricane Sandy in America all brought serious damage. The government and private organizations, community, and the mass together dedicated to relieving the disaster. However, is there anything in these disaster-relief experiences needs to be improved and altered? Or has the government and organizations (third-party fire fighting) been well integrated? This is what the researcher is going to give a closer examination on.
