 What is Disaster?
A DISASTER is a natural or man-made
hazard that has come to fruition, resulting in
an event of substantial extent causing
significant physical damage or destruction,
loss of life, or drastic change to the
environment.
 Classification of Disaster
Natural Man-made
Disasters Disasters

•Meteorological •Technological
•Topographical •Industrial
•Environmental •Warfare
 Types of Disaster
1.Natural Disaster •Earthquake
A natural disaster is a consequence when a natural •Typhoon
calamity affects humans and/or the built
environment. to Human vulnerability, and often a •Flood
lack of appropriate emergency management, leads •Volcanic Eruption
financial, environmental, or human impact. The
resulting loss depends on the capacity of the •Pandemic
population to support or resist the disaster: their
resilience. This understanding is concentrated in
•El Niño
the formulation: "disasters occur when hazards •La Niña
meet vulnerability". A natural hazard will hence
never result in a natural disaster in areas without
•Landslide
vulnerability.

2. Man-made Disaster
- Anthropogenic hazards or man-made
hazards can come to fruition in the • Pollution
form of a man-made disaster. In this (Air, Water)
case, "anthropogenic" means threats • Fire
having an element of human intent, • Terrorism
negligence, or error; or involving a • Deforestation
failure of a man-made system. Etc.

 Disaster effect
•Deaths

•Disabilities

• Increase in communicable diseases.

• Psychological problems.

•Food shortage

•Socio-economic losses.

•Shortage of drugs and medical supplies.

•Environmental disruption.

 Disaster Management

The body of policy and administrative decisions and operational

activities that pertain to various stages of a disaster at all levels.

An applied science which seeks, by systemic observation and

analysis of disasters, to improve measures relating to
prevention, emergency response, recovery and mitigation.

Encompasses all aspects of planning for, and responding to

disasters, including both pre and post disaster activities.
 A continuous and integrated process of planning, organizing,
coordinating and implementing measures which are necessary or
expedient for

• Prevention of danger or threat of any disaster.

• Reduction of risk of any disaster or its severity or
consequences.
•Capacity-building.
• Preparedness to deal with any disaster.
• Prompt response to any threatening disaster situation or
disaster.
•Assessing the severity or magnitude of effects of any disaster.
• Evacuation, rescue and relief.
Principle of Disaster management
•Minimize the casualties.
• Prevent further casualties.
•Rescue the victims.
• First aid.
•Medical care.
•Reconstruction.
• Disaster management is the responsibility of all
spheres of govt.
• Disaster management should use resources that
exist for a day-to-day purpose.
• Organizations should function as an extension of
their core business.
 Contd....

•Individuals are responsible for their own safety.

• Disaster management planning should focus on large-scale events.

•Disaster management should recognize the difference between incidents

and disasters.

•Disaster management operational arrangements are additional to and do

not replace incident management operational arrangements.

•Planning must take account of the type of physical environment and the
structure of the population.

• Disaster management arrangements must recognize the involvement and

potential role of non-govt. agencies.
