Disaster Response

Disaster Response refers to the organized efforts and actions taken to address and manage the immediate impacts of a disaster, such as natural calamities, technological accidents, or human-induced crises. This phase follows a disaster event and involves various activities aimed at saving lives, reducing suffering, and protecting property. Key components of disaster response include the mobilization of emergency services, distribution of aid and supplies, search and rescue operations, medical care for the injured, and coordination among government agencies, non-governmental organizations, and community groups. Effective disaster response is crucial for mitigating the adverse effects of disasters and facilitating recovery efforts.
