The community plays a pivotal role in disaster risk reduction and management, a significance supported by numerous studies. Engaging and involving communities is essential for effectively mitigating and managing the impacts of disasters. Communities serve as the frontline responders and initial providers of assistance, given their direct exposure and proximity to the affected areas. Actively including communities in decision-making processes and equipping them with knowledge and skills are key steps in identifying, comprehending, and addressing disaster risks.Community-based Disaster Risk Reduction and Management covers a wide range of topics, including risk assessment and analysis, disaster preparedness planning, early warning systems, community engagement, and post-disaster recovery and reconstruction. It emphasizes the importance of local knowledge, community empowerment, and participatory approaches in building resilience and reducing vulnerabilities. Through case studies, practical examples, and evidence-based research findings, the book equips readers with the tools and insights needed to design and implement effective disaster risk reduction initiatives that are tailored to the specific needs and context of different communities.
