5. Is Dependent on :
Lead Time Available.
Intensity of Hazard.
Duration.
Spatial Extent.
Density of Population & Assets.
Time of Occurrence.
Vulnerabilities existing in the Elements at
Risk.
Hazard X Vulnerability =
Disaster
6. People
Livestock

7. Reduce (Avoid, if possible) the
potential losses from hazards.
Assure prompt and appropriate
assistance to victims when
necessary.
Achieve rapid and durable

11. Disaster preparedness aims at
minimizing the adverse effects of a hazard
-
Through effective precautionary actions
Ensure timely, appropriate and efficient

12. Vulnerability Analysis and Mapping to include
Resources.
Assess strengthening requirements and
execute.

If you look at the right half of the slide you will find that the damage potential in the hazard causes the damages to the society
Life comes to a halt and the poorer sections of the society can never recover to the pre-disaster causes serious disruption to life of the society
But with awareness and preparation through action plans the society suffers less damages and is thus a more stable society.to recover faster.
