Sammanfattning:The present study had as main objective to know the meanings assigned to capacities and vulnerabilities before the earthquake risk of two neighbors emergency brigades belonging to the town of Arica, Chile. A case study design was used, using two intentional strategic levels of sample selection: communal scale and participants. The data are produced by the intra-method triangulation of six techniques, using as an analytical coding strategy a grounded theory model, that was based on three areas a) physical / material, b) social / organizational and c) motivational / attitudinal. The results show the organizational and motivational capacities to account physical-material vulnerabilities to the stages of preparation, emergency and response. It is concluded the importance of strengthening the development of local community capacities for risk management and community resilience, which must be accompanied by structural and institutional development.
