As the world faces an increasing number of natural and anthropogenic disasters as well as complex emergencies such as food, insecurity, and conflict, the need for effective disaster risk reduction and management has become a global challenge. As urbanization, globalization, and climate change impact low and middle-income countries, the improvement of national and international disaster management systems has become a priority. In higher-income countries where national disaster and emergency management systems and processes are well defined, there are still considerable challenges to address in terms of preparedness, coordinated response, and recovery. There is much work to do.
