Introduction______________________________________________________________________
The interaction between humans, the environment, and technology has led to
rapid development and an overall improvement in living standards. Nations
have progressed, economic growth has surged, and industries have flourished
across the globe. However, it is crucial to acknowledge the associated
consequences. One of the most challenging outcomes is the occurrence of
disasters, which impact not only human beings but also other living and non-
living entities. These disasters can occur suddenly and unpredictably or
gradually and persistently.
Ongoing disasters of various kinds significantly influence our daily lives and
routines. Historically, human responses to catastrophes have often been
reactive, with communities becoming aware of the dangers they face only after
experiencing negative outcomes. The continuous growth of social and
economic systems has contributed to increased vulnerability, reducing
humans' ability to adapt to disasters and their aftermath.
