disaster risk management policies

Disaster risk management policies are strategic plans that help communities and organizations prepare for, respond to, and recover from natural or human-made disasters. They involve identifying potential risks, implementing measures to reduce vulnerabilities, and establishing procedures for quick and effective action when a disaster occurs. The goal is to minimize damage, protect lives and property, and ensure that recovery is as smooth as possible. These policies foster coordination among government agencies, communities, and stakeholders to build resilience and ensure a structured approach to managing emergencies.
