Socio economic impacts of natural disasters
Natural disasters have significant socio-economic impacts that vary depending on whether they occur in a less economically developed country (LEDC) or more economically developed country (MEDC). In LEDCs, disasters can have more severe consequences due to factors like lower GDP, weaker infrastructure, lack of resources, and unstable governments. This hinders recovery efforts. Major international aid organizations like the UN and Red Cross provide relief in disasters worldwide, but their assistance is also more crucial in LEDCs with limited response capacities. The wealth and development level of a nation therefore influences the scale of damage and recovery from natural hazards.

Disaster management through community participation
What is Community Participation
Community participation, generally, refers to the involvement of people in any project to solve their own problems or to develop their socio-economic conditions. They participate in setting goals, and preparing, implementing and evaluating plans and programs.
Basically, it is a dynamic group process in which all members of a group contribute, share or are influenced by the interchange of ideas and activities toward problem-solving or decision-making .
MULTI HAZARD AND DISASTER VULNERABILITY OF IN DIA
In relation to hazards and disasters, vulnerability is a concept that links the relationship that people have with their environment to social forces and institutions and the cultural values that sustain and contest them. It's also the extent to which changes could harm a system or to which a community can be affected by the impact of a hazard. A natural disaster is a consequence when a natural calamity affects humans and/or the built environment. Human vulnerability, and often a lack of appropriate emergency management, leads to financial, environmental, or human impact. The resulting loss depends on the capacity of the population to support or resist the disaster: their resilience. This understanding is concentrated in the formulation: "disasters occur when hazards meet vulnerability".
Public awareness on disaster management
This document discusses the importance of public awareness and education in disaster management. It notes that communities must be proactive in disaster preparedness and risk reduction. Effective public awareness programs educate local communities about disaster types, risks, and how to prepare for and respond to disasters.

Disaster risk reduction
Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) aims to protect communities from hazards through prevention, preparedness, response, and rehabilitation efforts. DRR includes reducing the frequency and impact of hazards, strengthening community capacity to withstand and recover from disasters, and minimizing hazards during disasters. DRR can be integrated into programs addressing issues like food security, agriculture, and capacity building. It requires understanding community risks and implementing measures to reduce vulnerability and support livelihoods. Countries where Concern works are prone to recurrent disasters like storms, earthquakes, landslides, and droughts, so DRR is important to bridge humanitarian and development efforts and sustain development in these high-risk areas.

Concepts in disaster management
This document provides definitions and concepts related to disasters. It defines a disaster as a serious disruption that exceeds a society's ability to cope using its own resources. Hazards are physical or human-made events that can potentially trigger a disaster. Risk is defined as expected losses from a hazard of a particular magnitude in a given area over time. Vulnerability refers to susceptibility to harm from physical, social, economic or political factors. Resilience is the ability to prevent, mitigate, prepare for, respond to and recover from disasters without compromising long-term development. The document also categorizes different types of disasters and hazards.
Community based disaster management1
The document discusses community-based disaster management (CBDM) and the importance of community involvement in disaster risk reduction and management. It outlines the key principles of CBDM, including communities playing a central role in both short- and long-term disaster management and risk reduction activities being focused on reducing vulnerabilities. It also describes the roles that local community groups, social workers, and training can play in CBDM efforts to build community capacity and empower communities to better prepare for and respond to disasters.
Community based disaster management
Community based disaster risk reduction (CBDRR) aims to 1) reduce vulnerabilities and increase capacities of vulnerable groups to cope with disasters, 2) minimize human suffering, and 3) hasten recovery. CBDRR covers interventions designed by at-risk local communities based on their needs and capacities. Through CBDRR, communities can become more disaster resilient by withstanding and recovering from natural and socio-economic shocks and stresses. Key indicators of resilience include safety, livelihood security, and sustainable development.

- 1. STRUCTURAL AND NON-STRUCTURAL MEASURES STRUCTURAL MEASURES: Any physical construction to reduce or avoid possible impacts of hazards, or application of engineering techniques to achieve hazard resistance and resilience in structures or systems are known as structural measures. Examples of structural measures: Common structural measures for disaster risk reduction include dams, flood levies, ocean wave barriers, earthquake-resistant construction, and evacuation shelters. For flood: By-pass channel, Dam, Drainage System, Flood wall, Reservoir, Retention pond, Road elevation, Storm drain, Water pump. For earthquake: Earthquake proof construction, Pressed brick and bamboo reinforcement, Strengthened confinements of buildings, Retrofitting. For tsunamis: Construction of sea wells and break waters, Planting tree belts, Regulation of coastal zone. For cyclones: Developing community shelter belts, Construction of permanent houses. NON-STRUCTURAL MEASURES: Measures not involving physical construction that uses knowledge, practice or agreement to reduce risks and impacts, in particular through policies and laws, public awareness raising, training and education are known as non-structural measures. Examples of non-structural measures: Building codes enforcement, Environmental management, Financial measures: insurance, loans, tax, micro-finance schemes, compensation, Forecasting, monitoring & early warning systems, Knowledge management: education, research, public awareness, capacity building, Land use planning and zoning, Legislation and policy development, Natural resources protection: water, coast, forest
