Community-Based Vulnerability Assessments

Community-Based Vulnerability Assessments are processes where local residents, organizations, and stakeholders collaborate to identify and understand risks and weaknesses within their community. This approach ensures that the specific needs, resources, and challenges of the community are considered. It involves gathering information through discussions, surveys, and observations to pinpoint areas most vulnerable to issues such as natural disasters, health crises, or economic instability. The goal is to develop targeted, effective strategies for improving resilience and safety, empowering community members to participate actively in protecting their environment and well-being.
