Disaster Preparedness, Mitigation and Reconstruction of Sustainable Society

Disasters are unstoppable natural and anthropogenic impacts which can be mitiged by suitable engineering and management options.Mitigation and Management of disasters requires a multi disciplinary approach and building requisite skills and capabilities adequate to deal with whole cycle of disaster management – Prevention, Mitigation, Preparedness, response, relief and rehabilitation.Most of the papers presented by authors in Disaster Preparednesss, Mitigation and reconstruction of sustainable society “Focused on the influence and impact of technology adoption of mitigation and management of Disaters.
