The complexity, inherent in disaster management brings several challenges and calls for intervention of various stakeholders, each with a distinct role to play. Inherent to effective responses and recovery is disaster preparedness and risk reduction, both before and after disasters, which centers on building capacities, resources and investments for resilience. The process of Disaster Risk Management and its components is multifarious and offers significant learning and challenges which are continually evolving. RedR India works on engaging with these challenges and learning through its four programme portfolios.
- In essence, RedR is about PEOPLE. Disasters affect people and their environs, and it is people who cope with disaster risk and in all disasters people are the first responders.
- We rely on the experience and professionalism of the people who deliver our training courses, ensuring expertise is shared and skills are developed.
- PEOPLE who attend RedR’s courses go on to use that knowledge to save and rebuild lives.
- PEOPLE who make up our membership are called on to use their commitment and skills to respond to the ever-growing humanitarian need.
- We rely on the commitment of the people who donate to RedR and support us through spreading the word and being part of the RedR community, to ensure our work can continue
