Earthquake Management

Earthquake management involves preparedness, response, and recovery to minimize damage and protect lives. It includes designing buildings to withstand tremors, developing early warning systems, and conducting regular drills. When an earthquake occurs, people should drop, cover, and hold on to stay safe. Authorities coordinate rescue efforts, provide medical aid, and restore essential services quickly. Long-term planning also involves updating construction standards and educating communities about risks. Effective earthquake management reduces casualties, safeguards property, and helps communities recover more rapidly after a quake.
