Disaster Management Approach (DMA)

Data Awareness Planning and Prevention Risk Pooling Response Recovery

DMA Data:

Data

Finding effective resilience measuresIncreases awareness

Early warning systems

Efficient Disaster response

Resilient rebuilding

• Risk Identification• Awareness• Contingency

Planning • Adaptation

OUTCOME:

DMA Awareness:

• Student awareness• Community

awareness• Communication

School awareness

DMA Planning

and Prevention:• Establish resilient

structures• Supervision of

construction • Retrofitting existing

structures • Others

DISASTER

DMA Risk

Pooling: • Recovery of

individuals, firms and economies.

catastrophe funds• Others

DMA Response:

Before and During the time of Disaster :• Early warning

systems• Evacuation plans• Efficient Response

measures and Rescue

DMA Response:

order• Quick damage

Assessment• Funds usage

DMA Recovery:

• Deploying loss adjusters

• Financial support • Lessons learnt• Resilient and

sustainable rebuilding

NATIONAL DISASTER MANAGEMENT FORCE

Role of Print and Media in Disaster Mitigation and Management

Sendai Framework (2015-2030)

• Understanding disaster risk• Strengthening disaster risk governance to manage

disaster risk• Investing in disaster risk reduction for resilience• Enhancing disaster preparedness for effective response,

and to “Build Back Better” in recovery, rehabilitation and reconstruction

SOURCE: Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030, Third UN World Conference, Sendai, Japan, March 18,2015.

Transfer of Technology

An Interdisciplinary Approach

• Government• Print & Media• NGOs• Youth• Military • Academic institutions• Sociologists • Psychologists• Others

Conclusion:

• NDMF at all levels of society to combat disasters effectively.

• Government interest alone will not give effective results, unless every individual of the nation realizes that their part is crucial in making India Resilient towards Disaster.
