Q1Disaster Management

A disaster is a sudden, calamitous event that seriously disrupts the functioning of a community or society, causing widespread human, material, economic, or environmental losses that exceed the affected community's ability to cope using its own resources. A disaster management system is the organized, systematic framework of policies, institutions, and operational procedures established to prevent, prepare for, respond to, and recover from such disasters, encompassing pre-disaster mitigation and preparedness activities as well as post-disaster response and recovery efforts.
