Resúmen
This good practice compendium is an outcome of ‘the Map and Exchange Good Practices (MEGP) Initiative’ jointly led by National institute of Disaster Management (NIDM) and United Nations World Food Programme. Climate change has significantly altered the disaster risk landscape in Asia. Disasters are more frequent and severe now and calls for urgent need to resort to more innovative approaches in disaster management lest it overwhelm the collective capacities of humanitarian agencies to respond to urgent humanitarian needs. NIDM and WFP joined hands together to mainstream the agenda of food and nutrition security in India’s emergency preparedness and response.
