Solution
Major international organizations manage global and regional disaster risks through coordinated relief, policy development, capacity building, and targeted emergency response. Their specialized activities are structured to protect communities, infrastructure, and human lives before, during, and after disasters.
The United Nations Centre for Human Settlements, known as UN-Habitat, works to promote sustainable urban development. In disaster management, the focus is on urban risk reduction, providing critical support to plan resilient infrastructure, rebuild housing, and manage safe, sustainable human settlements after crises.
