Relief and Rehabilitation

Relief and rehabilitation are two interconnected efforts in disaster management. Relief provides immediate support such as food, water, medical care, and shelter to those affected by a disaster, addressing urgent needs and saving lives. Rehabilitation focuses on long-term recovery, helping communities rebuild infrastructure, restore livelihoods, and regain normalcy. It involves restoring essential services and supporting social and economic stability. Together, these efforts aim to alleviate suffering quickly and ensure sustainable recovery for individuals and communities impacted by disasters.
