Capacity building in disaster management involves strengthening local skills, resources, and abilities. This includes educating communities about hazards and responses, training volunteers, collaborating with relief agencies, conducting mock drills, and understanding warning messages. Assessing needs, knowledge, and attitudes is important for effective training programs. Involving all stakeholders and mainstreaming disaster risk reduction also builds capacity. Capacity building connects disasters with development and relies on traditional knowledge and participation to improve well-being and ensure organizational success over time.

• Conduct of Training Needs Analysis
• Preparation of Knowledge, Skills and Attitude
• Administration of Face-to-Face Training
Programme (FFTP)

5. various elements of capacity building
• Education on disaster prevention and response
• Training to vulnerable communities
• Collaboration with relief agencies
• Mock drill
• Household preparation
• Understanding warning/de-warning messages
• First aid preparedness

6. Education on disaster prevention and response
• It includes educating the vulnerable communities as

13. Factor of capacity building
1.Connect between Disasters and Development
2.Sustainable Development and Traditional Wisdom
3.Participation of all Stakeholders
4.Mainstreaming Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR)
5.Gender Mainstreaming
6. Psycho-social Support in Disaster Aftermath
7.Preparation of Training Manual
8.Unique Training Approach

14. 1.Connect between Disasters and Development
The “backward” and “forward” linkages between
political, developmental, relief and rehabilitation
operations constitute a complex network of
relationships.

18. a)Training Needs Analysis

19. b)Knowledge Skills and Attitudes (KSAs)

20. c)The Role of capacity building Functionaries Towards
Effective Conduct of FFTPs
• Training Tools

Analysis

21. Importance of Capacity Building to Future Success
• These entities provide needed
social services, education, health
care and the arts that improve
the well being of the community
and on which many people
depend

23. Conclusion
• The process through which individuals, organizations
