CEM (Comprehensive Emergency Management)

Comprehensive Emergency Management (CEM) is a coordinated approach to preparing for, responding to, and recovering from emergencies and disasters. It involves four key phases: mitigation (reducing risks), preparedness (planning and training), response (actions during an incident), and recovery (restoring normalcy). CEM aims to ensure communities are resilient, reducing the impact of emergencies through planning, collaboration, and resource management across agencies, organizations, and the public. This systematic approach helps communities handle emergencies more effectively, minimizing damage and protecting lives and property.
