cope up when a disaster occurs while using all
the available resources in their home nor in their

Family and community support in times of
crises

     For families to be able to cope with adversity, they should be able to


identify potentially meaningful outcomes of a crisis situation, maintain a
positive outlook while realistically assessing the risk of the situation, use
humor as a mechanism to alleviate negative emotions, and hold on to
hope and faith that the crisis situation is nothing but temporary. The kind of
positivity we need is that which springs forth from our genuine love and
care for one another and which does not shun away from the reality that
what we are going through right now is truly frightening and difficult.

Local knowledge and skills

Local knowledge and skills aims to provide knowledge among individuals


and groups to take actions to reduce their vulnerability to disasters. During
the last decades, the issue that trained people can be prepared for disasters
and responding well has been extensively investigated. Based on the results,
disaster education is a functional, operational, and cost-effective tool for risk
management. Based on some evidence, it is important for vulnerable people
to learn about disasters. There are different methods to educate vulnerable
people, but no method is better than others. Trained people can better
protect themselves and others. In this regard, planning and designing
comprehensive educational programs are necessary for people to face
disasters.
