Before the Disaster
During the Disaster
After the Disaster
• Check for hazards in the home
• Identify safe places in each room
• Locate safe places outdoors
• Ensure all family members know how to respond after an earthquake
• Teach children when and how to call 9-1-1
• Have disaster supplies on
• Develop an emergency communications plan in case of separation during the earthquake
• Ask an out-of-state relative or friend to serve as the family contact
• If indoors: Take cover under a piece of heavy furniture or against an inside wall and stay inside
• If outdoors: Move into the open, away from buildings, street lights, and utility wires and remain there until shaking stops
• If in a moving vehicle: Stop quickly, stay in vehicle, move to a clear area away from buildings, trees, overpasses, or utility wires
• Be prepared for after shocks
• Help injured or trapped persons and give first aid where appropriate
• Listen to a battery operated radio for emergency information
• Stay out of damaged buildings and return home only when authorities say it is safe
The National Cyclone Risk Mitigation Process was launched in India. The main objectives of the project are to minimize risk and vulnerabilities to cyclones, to strengthen the structural and non-structural cyclone mitigation efforts and to build capabilities and capacities of people for cyclone risk mitigation in harmony with the conservation of coastal ecosystems in coastal cyclone hazard prone States and Union Territories.Mitigation means "measures taken in advance that are aimed to decrease or eliminate the impact of disasters on the community and environment". Today, the Policy makers and Disaster Management specialists are rethinking their approach to disaster management by increasing investment in risk reduction & mitigation measures rather than concentrating on post disaster response (relief & reconstruction).The Mitigation Strategies could be✓ Proper infrastructure development for providing accurate and prompt cyclone warning.✓ Design and construction of robust buildings, roads, bridges and other infrastructure besides"Cyclone proof" buildings, which have storage and sleeping areas high off the ground anduse water-resistant materials.✓ Hazard reduction by trying to control the hazard in advance, such as, seawalls, diversiondrains, coastal shelterbelts, protection and promotion of natural sea side vegetation (mangrove)etc.✓ Land use planning, which "builds in" a distance between the hazard and the community.✓ Management of Delta Zones.✓ Contingency Plans at all levels (community, government and civil society), which includedisaster mitigation strategies.✓ Awareness and Educational campaigns that provide advice to the community on cyclonepreparedness as well as mitigations measures✓ Develop healthy partnerships between stakeholders at all levels -especially government,private sector and the community to achieve sustainable mitigation strategies.
non structural mitigation measures :
A mitigation strategy is a way to control damages. It is a way to decrease the cost of damages and recoup some of the losses incurred when a tort is committed against someone.
All manor of mitigation that is present today is continuously in use. These would be largely the mass reduction of the planets carbon footprint by reducing toxins and pollution from manufacturing processes.
long term earthquakes are earthquakes that are for a long period of time and short term earthquakes are when the earthquakes are for a short period of time

Mitigation strategies refer to actions taken to reduce or prevent the impact of a potential threat or risk. These strategies are designed to lessen the severity or likelihood of a negative event occurring. Examples of mitigation strategies include disaster preparedness plans, infrastructure improvements, and risk assessments.
i am finding it................
there are two types; structural and non structural
the safety
We can mitigate nuclear disaster because it is not harmful at all.

Be familiar with warning signs (earthquakes, ground rumbling, or rapid rise and fall of coastal waters) Listen to radio for emergency and evacuation information Climb to higher ground as soon as warning of a tsunami is released Stay tuned to radio for emergency information
