Community-Based Disaster Risk Management (CBDRM)

Community-Based Disaster Risk Management (CBDRM) is a strategy that empowers local communities to assess and manage risks associated with natural disasters. It involves engaging residents in planning and implementing measures to reduce vulnerability and enhance resilience to hazards like floods, earthquakes, or storms. By focusing on local knowledge and resources, CBDRM encourages communities to create their own solutions, increase preparedness, and ensure effective response and recovery efforts. This approach fosters collaboration among community members, local authorities, and organizations to build a safer and more resilient environment for everyone.
