Disaster Mitigation and Adaptation Fund

The Disaster Mitigation and Adaptation Fund (DMAF) is a government program that provides financial support to communities for projects that reduce future disaster risks, such as floods, wildfires, and storms. Its goal is to enhance resilience by funding activities like strengthening infrastructure, protecting natural landscapes, and improving emergency preparedness. By investing in mitigation and adaptation efforts, DMAF helps communities lessen the impact of disasters, save lives, and reduce recovery costs over time. It encourages proactive planning and infrastructure improvements to better withstand environmental challenges.
