certificate in disaster risk reduction & management (drrm) Program

he occurrence of any kind of disaster leads to devastating consequences. Disasters may lead to death, injuries, destruction of properties, diseases, mass displacements, loss of infrastructure and social & economic disruption. According to UNDRR, the onset of disasters between 1998-2017 led to the death of 1.3 million people while affecting a population of 4.4 billion people across the globe. Geophysical events such as tsunamis, earthquakes, cyclones, floods, landslides, droughts as well as man-made disasters such as water pollution, disease epidemics and urban fires were responsible for most fatalities. It might be hard to prevent a hazard from occurring but through the use of Disaster Risk Reduction and Management (DRRM) skills, a hazard can be prevented from turning into a disaster. This would also help in mitigating its impacts by increasing resilience among the affected communities. Undertaking a professional course in DRRM prepared by Humanitarian Global will help you develop in-depth knowledge in this professional area.
