The center has also undertook the responsibility of training communities and community based organizations and through them develop a strong regional knowledge base towards disaster policy, prevention mechanisms, mitigation measures, preparedness, and response plans. Perhaps the most important need at the State level is to strengthen and develop capacity to undertake disaster mitigation strategies. Disaster vulnerability assessment is to be incorporated in the state development process so that projects and future investments reduce, rather than increase vulnerability. In order to overcome resource constraints and to be effective and sustainable, the action plan for disaster reduction is to be incorporated in the overall economic and social development plans. No matter what loss-reduction strategy is used, major reductions in losses of life and property come only when the emphasis shifts from reaction to anticipation. That is,the emphasis must be on proactive pre-disaster measures rather than post-disaster response.
Disaster Mitigation and Management Centre (DMMC) expected to function as a think-tank for the Ministry/Department, will look into, and incorporate prevention, preparedness and mitigation aspects for all projects.

“The Cockroach Theory for Self Development” by Sundar Pichai

At a restaurant, a cockroach suddenly flew from somewhere and sat on a lady. She started screaming out of fear. With a panic stricken face and trembling voice, she started jumping, with both her hands desperately trying to get rid of the cockroach. Her reaction was contagious, as everyone in her group also got panicky. The lady finally managed to push the cockroach away but …it landed on another lady in the group. Now, it was the turn of the other lady in the group to continue the drama.
