• W2398182848 abstract "Disaster is an unexpected accident resulting from natural or man-made factors that has a negative impact on the daily lives and living conditions of human and flora/fauna. There has been an increased concern all around the world about disaster management to minimize, if not prevent, the damage. Present study on 500 secondary school students of schools of five revenue districts of Kerala revealed that they are having low level of awareness with significant gender difference, locale difference in awareness on disaster management and significant difference in awareness on disaster management exist between those who have experienced disasters and those who have not. © 2015 Guru Journal of Behavioral and Social Sciences It will not be exaggerating if one says that even a single day is not passing without the news of disasters, in the form of flood as in Maharashtra or earth quake as in Nepal or the like. These calamities may be due to natural causes such as heavy rain or earth quake where as some others will be due to the carelessness of man. Considering the severity and damage due to these disasters, there has been an increased concern all around the world about disaster management with a hope that something can be done about these disasters so as to minimize, if not prevent, the damage. In fact there are no natural disasters. Nature produces hazards such as earthquake, cyclones, rains and tsunamis. These hazards turn into disasters when human lives or economic investments are located in places vulnerable to such natural hazards. Disaster is an unexpected accident resulting from natural or man-made factors (or combination of both) that has a negative impact on the daily lives and living conditions of human and flora/fauna. The centre for Research on the Epidemiology of Disaster (CRED) in Brussels, Belgium, uses a modified definition, A disaster is a situation or event which over whelms local capacity, necessitating a request to a national or international level of external assistance”. According to CRED an event is classified as a disaster if, it killed more than 10 people/ impacted or displaced more than 100 people/ it is declared a national emergency/ the country has sought international assistance. The main features of disaster can be listed as unpredictability, unfamiliarity, speed, urgency, uncertainty, and threat. Whatever is the cause and the context, disasters cause disruption in the normal patterns of life, be it for the country, state or the family. Disasters at times, set families and countries back by a generation in terms of their economic development. So, the scenario of increased exposure and increasing hazards arises a question on what the institutions and individuals should do to avoid or decrease the impact on human raceand the answer is the branch of management called disaster risk management. Vulnerability of disaster can be reduced or avoided through proper disaster management system. The decade 1990-99 was declared as International Decade for Natural Disaster Reduction by UN with the main objective of focusing on disaster management planning for" @default.
