Abstract

This article examines disaster management and risk reduction strategies in the context of climate change with a specific focus on India and the wider South Asian region. It highlights the growing frequency and intensity of climate-related disasters and the resulting socio-economic vulnerabilities, particularly in densely populated and resource-dependent societies. The study explains the conceptual and operational linkages between Climate Change Adaptation (CCA) and Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR), emphasizing the need for their institutional and policy-level integration. It traces the evolution of India's disaster management framework from a relief-centric model to a proactive, prevention-oriented, and legally institutionalized system under the Disaster Management Act, 2005, supported by national and state-level authorities and specialized response forces. The paper reviews India's disaster profile, covering major hazards such as earthquakes, floods, droughts, cyclones, tsunamis, and landslides, and discusses mitigation, preparedness, response, and capacity-building measures aligned with global frameworks such as the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction. It argues that effective risk governance requires inter-agency coordination, knowledge-sharing platforms, regional cooperation, and continuous monitoring mechanisms. The article concludes by recommending stronger institutional convergence of DRR and CCA policies, enhanced resilience-building, and regional collaboration across South Asia to address emerging climate risks and ensure sustainable development.
