Emergency management is the organization and management of resources and responsibilities to address all humanitarian aspects of emergencies -preparation, response and recovery- in order to reduce the harmful effects of all hazards, including disasters. It is often exchanged with disaster management, it should not be confused with it. The World Health Organization defines an emergency as the state in which normal procedures are interrupted, and immediate steps must be taken to prevent that state from becoming a disaster. Therefore, emergency management is crucial to prevent the interruption from becoming a disaster, which is more difficult to recover.
The National Disaster Management Authority is the main government agency responsible for planning and developing capacities for disaster relief. Its emphasis is mainly on the management and mitigation of strategic risks, as well as the development of policies and planning. The National Institute for Disaster Management is a group of policy experts and training institutions to develop guidelines and training programs to mitigate disasters and manage crisis response.
The National Disaster Response Force is the government agency responsible mainly for the management of emergencies during natural and man-made disasters, with specialized skills in search, rescue and rehabilitation. The Ministry of Science and Technology also contains an agency that brings the experience of earth scientists and meteorologists to emergency management. The Indian Armed Forces also play an important role in rescue / recovery operations after a disaster. The Academy of Disaster Management of Aniruddha (AADM) is a non-profit organization in Mumbai, India, with "disaster management" as the main objective.
