What is Disaster Management?
 Disasters take many shapes. Human-made disasters result from human
errors and include industrial explosions or structure failures. Natural
disasters result from physical phenomena and include earthquakes and
droughts. Disasters classified as complex can include epidemics or
armed conflicts.
 In whatever form, disasters disrupt communities and can take a serious
toll on people, property, economies, and the environment. They often
stretch a community’s capacity to cope.
 Disaster management is a process of effectively preparing for and
responding to disasters. It involves strategically organizing resources to
lessen the harm that disasters cause. It also involves a systematic
approach to managing the responsibilities of disaster prevention,
preparedness, response, and recovery.
The Scope of Disaster Management
 Ensuring the availability of local emergency
equipment and transportation.
 Achieving quick recovery from disaster.
 Long-term planning for particular disaster to reduce its
risk.
 Shifting exposure from vulnerable area into safe place.
 Creating awareness about disaster and its mitigation
process among people.

Conclusion
Natural and man-made disasters can have a
distressing impact on small businesses, which is why
it’s critical to have a disaster management strategy in
place. This is a plan that outlines what hazards your
business is at risk of facing, what you can do to avoid
or manage them and how to get your business back up
and running should a disaster strike. The conclusion of
your disaster management plan reiterates the salient
points and provides actionable takeaways.

Strategies that disaster management professionals implement to protect vulnerable
communities and limit hazards include the following:
• Raising awareness about potential hazards and how to address them
• Educating the public about how to properly prepare for different types of disaster
• Installing and strengthening prediction and warning systems
• Encouraging community members to buy appropriate insurance to protect their
properties and belongings
• Educating families and businesses on how to create effective disaster plans
• Promoting the use of fire-retardant materials in construction
• Advocating for capital works initiatives, such as the construction and
maintenance of levees
