Soclal Impacte & Emergency Response
Chapter 7
CONCLUSIONS
Efforts should be made on a national level to develop resource material and kits
for training relief workers and officials. An action plan or step-by-step procedure
to respond to natural disasters such as earthquakes should be developed. This
plan should be developed keeping in mind the role that all levels of governance
and NGOs can play in the respective areas of competence. A general confusion
which ensues in such disasters which makes relief work extremely difficult can
be avoided and affected people can be better served.
