national disaster management agencies

National disaster management agencies are government organizations responsible for preparing for, coordinating, and responding to emergencies such as earthquakes, floods, or pandemics. They develop plans, conduct training, and manage resources to reduce risks and ensure swift, effective action during crises. Their goal is to protect lives, property, and communities by coordinating efforts among various agencies, providing information, and supporting recovery efforts. These agencies operate at the national level but work closely with local authorities, organizations, and the public to build resilience and handle disasters efficiently.
