Abstract:
The occurrence of several cases of natural disaster and its impact on high-risk regions remains an issue that continues to attract continued research, most especially from a global perspective. Despite the devastating impact of several known natural phenomenon such as flooding, tsunamis, earthquakes, glaciers and tornadoes, there seem not to be well-structured disaster management approach from stakeholders in high-risk disaster-prone regions to cope with eventual disaster cases. The Indian Himalayan region under review within this research article has been conducted investigated, and a review on how the build of poorly constructed residences have impacted the lives of people living within this region. This article addresses this problem in a line with well-structured thematic sections that examines community resilience, effective stakeholder communication and community preparedness can result in effective disaster management approach.
