Disaster risk research focuses on understanding the various aspects of natural and man-made disasters, such as their causes, impacts, and ways to mitigate their effects. This field of study examines the vulnerability of communities and infrastructure to disasters, as well as the social, economic, and environmental factors that contribute to the risk of disasters occurring. Researchers in this area aim to develop strategies for reducing disaster risk, enhancing disaster preparedness, and improving disaster response and recovery efforts. The ultimate goal of disaster risk research is to increase resilience and reduce the impact of disasters on individuals, communities, and society as a whole.
