Abstract

Disaster is commonly used to denote any odd event be natural or manmade, which brings about immense misery to a region. Despite being vulnerable to all types of disasters, the state is lacking a clear policy for managing disasters. There is need to shift from a reactive post-disaster relief-centric approach to a more proactive approach. Social workers can play a vital role in building a culture of managing disasters at community level.
