Natural hazards management

Natural hazards management refers to the strategies and practices employed to understand, prepare for, respond to, and recover from natural disasters like earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, and wildfires. This involves assessing risks, developing emergency plans, educating communities, implementing infrastructure improvements, and coordinating response efforts among government agencies and organizations. The goal is to minimize damage, protect lives, and ensure swift recovery when such events occur, enhancing community resilience against future hazards. Effective management combines scientific research, policy-making, and community engagement to build safer environments.
