Being aware is not enough. People, communities and governments need to be equipped with skills and capability to help them prepare for disasters. This includes, among others, development of contingency plans, pre-emptive evacuation, incident command systems, stockpiling and equipment pre-positioning.

Ps. 16, 24, 26, 27, 29, 65

15. Evacuated safely and on time affected communities The decision to evacuate an area must be done promptly. Timing is essential to an orderly, safe, and effective evacuation. Authorities must ensure that no person gets stranded; all those who want/need evacuation must be attended to. Though timing is essential, it is not only the factor that contributes to successful evacuation operations. The availability of logistics is also a key consideration; the scale disaster itself (e.g., inclement weather) is also important. Accordingly, there must be regular coordination with relevant agencies to ensure seamless activation of evacuation system/procedures.

Ps. 16, 24, 26, 27, 29, 65

Develop a long term plan for adaptation of highly CC vulnerable population and climate refugees.

Ps. 16, 24, 26, 27, 29, 65

Population of people from hazard- prone areas relocated to safe areas.

Ps. 16, 24, 26, 27, 29, 65
