What is Disaster & what is Disaster Management ?

Etymology Originated from Greek dus = bad aster = starWhat is disaster ?A sudden accident or a natural catastrophe that causes great damage or loss of life. What is disaster management ?Organization and management of resources and responsibilities for dealing with all humanitarian aspects of emergencies, in particular preparedness, response and recovery in order to lessen the impact of disasters.

Introduction to Disaster  Any occurrence that causes damage,

ecological disruption, loss of human life, deterioration of health and health services on a scale, sufficient to warrant an extraordinary response from outside the affected community or area.(WHO) A disaster can be defined as an occurrence either natural or man made that causes human suffering and creates human needs that victim cannot alleviate without assistance.

Hazard Any phenomenon that has the potential to

cause disruption or damage to people and their environment.

When hazard involves elements of risks, vulnerabilities and capacities, they can turn into disasters.

Hazards may be inevitable but disasters can be prevented.

  “A hazard is natural event while the disaster is its consequence. A hazard is perceived natural event which threatens both life and property…… A disaster is a realization of this hazard.” -John Whittow

VulnerabilityThe propensity of things to be damaged by a hazard.

Natural Disasters

Visage Disaster (HUDHUD)Hudhud originated from a low pressure system that formed under the influence of an upper-air cyclonic circulation in the Andaman Sea on October 6. Hudhud intensified into a cyclonic storm on October 8 and as a Severe Cyclonic Storm on October 9.Hudhud caused extensive damage to the city of Visakhapatnam and the neighboring districts of Vizianagaram and Srikakulam of Andhra Pradesh. According to Andhra Pradesh’s Revenue (Disaster Management) Department, a total of 2,48,004 people were affected by Hudhud, which also damaged 70 houses and left 34 animals deadManagement Technique :

Hiroshima & Nagasaki Issue

The United States, with the consent of the United Kingdom as laid down in the Quebec Agreement, dropped nuclear weapons on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945, during the final stage of World War II. The two bombings, which killed at least 129,000 people

Disaster Management can be defined as the organization and management of resources and responsibilities for dealing with all humanitarian aspects of emergencies, in particular preparedness, response and recovery in order to lessen the impact of disasters.

Disaster ManagementThe 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.

Disaster ManagementA 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.●Rehabilitation and reconstruction.

PHASES OF DISASTER MANAGEMENT

* Disaster Prevention* Disaster Preparedness * Disaster Impact * Disaster Response * Disaster Recovery * Disaster Mitigation * Disaster Rehabilitation

Disaster Management Phases,prepare communities with the knowledge and resources to protect themselves from harm and to manage the response and recovery stages.Prevention and preparedness identifies potential risks and the actions that can be taken before a disaster event in order to reduce its impact. Response to a disaster event must be swift and effective to combat the disaster, to assist those affected by it and to make the area safe. While the effects of a disaster can be sudden, the recovery period can place significant long-term strain on a community. A disaster stricken community needs assistance to regain a proper level of functioning following a disaster.

Types of Disaster management

Management during Disaster

Post-Disaster management

Types of Disaster management technique

1. Continuous monitoring

2. Not harming existing natural resources

Phases of Disaster

Prevention

It focuses on preventing the human hazard, primarily from potential natural disasters or terrorist attacks. Preventive measures are taken on both the domestic and international levels, designed to provide permanent protection from disasters. Not all disasters, particularly natural disasters, can be prevented, but the risk of loss of life and injury can be mitigated with good evacuation plans, environmental planning and design standards. In January 2005, 167 Governments adopted a 10-year global plan for natural disaster risk reduction called the Hyogo Framework.[citation needed]

Preventing or reducing the impacts of disasters on our communities is a key focus for emergency management efforts today. Prevention and mitigation also help reduce the financial costs of disaster response and recovery. Public Safety Canada is working with provincial and territorial governments and stakeholders to promote disaster prevention and mitigation using a risk-based and all-hazards approach. In 2008, Federal/Provincial/Territorial Ministers endorsed a National Disaster Mitigation Strategy

MitigationPreventive or mitigation measures take different forms for different types of disasters. In earthquake prone areas, these preventive measures might include structural changes such as the installation of an earthquake valve to instantly shut off the natural gas supply, seismic retrofits of property, and the securing of items inside a building. The latter may include the mounting of furniture, refrigerators, water heaters and breakables to the walls, and the addition of cabinet latches. In flood prone areas, houses can be built on poles/stilts. In areas prone to prolonged electricity black-outs installation of a generator ensures continuation of electrical service. The construction of storm cellars and fallout shelters are further examples of personal imigative actions.

Disaster Preparedness Co-ordination of a variety of sectors to carry out- Evaluation of the risk. Adopt standards and regulations. Organize communication and response mechanism. Ensure all resources- ready and easily mobilized. Develop public education programs. Coordinate information with news media. Disaster simulation exercises.

Disaster Response

Immediate reaction to disaster as the disaster is anticipated, or soon after it begins in order to assess the needs, reduce the suffering, limit the spread and consequences of the disaster, open up the way to rehabilitation. By-Mass evacuation Search and rescueEmergency medical servicesSecuring food and waterMaintenance of Law & Order

Responding to disasters

Disasters impact on entire communities. The immediate effects include loss of life and damage to property and infrastructure, with the survivors (some of whom may have been injured in the disaster) traumatized by the experience, uncertain of the future and less able to provide for their own welfare, at least in the short term. More than likely, they are left without adequate shelter, food, water and other necessities to sustain life. Rapid action is required to prevent further loss of life.

crisis to recoveryRecovery refers to those programmes which go beyond the provision of immediate relief to assist those who have suffered the full impact of a disaster to rebuild their homes, lives and services and to strengthen their capacity to cope with future disasters.

Our views to control some disasters

Control of disaster by using advanced technology Accidents

informer

Traffic controller

Control of plane crashes

A BRICK that helps in tolerating EARTHQUAKE

Our views to control some disastersControl of fire accidents like gas leaks & short circuits We can use gas & smoke sensors for any gas leak happens

It can detect upto 100 meters long

Fire sensor

Disaster ReportsWorld Disaster reduction day is celebrated on 2nd Wednesday of OctoberDisater reports highlight disaster management activities undertaken during the relevant financial year together with details of disaster operations and information about priorities for disas ter management.

Protection of human lives is the main motto of the World Disaster reduction by 2015

Total number of Disasters up to 2015 is <5000
