proactive disaster response

Proactive disaster response involves taking measures before a disaster happens to minimize its impact. This includes preparing emergency plans, warning communities, securing infrastructure, and stockpiling supplies. By anticipating potential risks—such as hurricanes, earthquakes, or floods—authorities and communities can act early to protect lives, reduce property damage, and ensure quicker recovery. Essentially, it’s about planning and acting in advance so that when a disaster strikes, its effects are less severe and response efforts are more efficient.
