Disaster management is emerging as a serious subject for study for administrators, planners and policy makers. This article outlines the approaches to managing and mitigating disaster. The author lays emphasis on critical and scientific analysis of disaster related data for making preparedness and response plans. There is enough to learn from the experiences of some recent disasters to streamline the rescue and relief operations. The author reminds the disaster managers to take care of trauma and psychic injures sustained by the disaster victims. Environmentalists believe that developmental activities induce most of the nature's imbalances which are manifested in the form of natural calamities and disaster from time-to-time. We may choose to ignore the word of caution while planning the developmental activities, but the planners will be better advised to brace up for the resultant disasters and hazards. - Reproduced. |
