- 3. Prevention and Mitigation Prevention and mitigation of disasters need basic understanding about the phenomenon/event; knowledge of what to do before the event; knowledge of what to do during the event; and knowledge of what to do after the event. All the disasters can not be mitigated or be prevented. People have to adapt to earthquake and volcanic eruption as science has not evolved to mitigate or prevent such disasters. But climate related disasters can mitigated or be prevented.
- 4. Prevention Prevention wasrecently added to the phases of disaster management. It focuses on preventing the human hazard, primarily from potential natural disasters. Preventive measures are taken on both the domestic and international levels, designed to provide permanent protection from disasters. Not all disasters, particularly natural disasters, can be prevented, but the risk of loss of life and injury can be mitigated with good evacuation plans, environmental planning and design standards.
- 5. Mitigation Preventive ormitigation measures take different forms for different types of disasters. In earthquake prone areas, these preventive measures might include structural changes such as the installation of an earthquake valve to instantly shut off the natural gas supply, and the securing of items inside a building. In flood prone areas, houses can be built on poles/stilts. In areas prone to electricity black-outs installation of a generator ensures continuation of electrical service. The construction of storm cellars and fallout shelters are further examples of personal mitigative action.
- 6. Early Warning System Early warning is a major element of disaster risk reduction. It prevents loss of life and reduces the economic and material impact of disasters. Early warning is a major element of disaster risk reduction. Early action can often prevent a hazard turning into a human disaster by preventing loss of life and reducing the economic and material impacts. To be effective and sustainable they must actively involve the communities at risk.
- 8. Early warningsystems can be set up to avoid or reduce the impact of hazards such as floods, landslides, storms, and forest fires. The significance of an effective early warning system lies in the recognition of its benefits by local people. HOW TO INCREASE EWS??? To be effective, early warning systems need to actively facilitate public education and awareness of risks, effectively disseminate alerts, and warnings and ensure there is constant state of preparedness. Developing early warning systems that can be managed by local communities and have long-term sustainability built into their design and operation

- 10. PREPAREDNESS Preparedness focuseson preparing equipment and procedures for use when a disaster occurs. This equipment and these procedures can be used to reduce vulnerability to disaster, to mitigate the impacts of a disaster or to respond more efficiently in an emergency. Step 1.

Capacity Development Capacitydevelopment is the process through which individuals, organizations and societies obtain, strengthen and maintain the capabilities to set and achieve their own development objectives over time. and group, growth of a society and nation Capacity is about growth: growth of the individual in knowledge, skills and experience. Growth of the group that surrounds this individual as these skills and knowledge are passed on. And from this individual .
