This book shows how specifically each goal of Sustainable Development
Goals could be incorporated in country wise developmental programmes set
to transform the world. It highlights how a combination of initiatives
on mitigation of disasters and a robust progress could build a resilient
society. The book discusses multidimensional processes such as
administrative, financial and social challenges which can mitigate
disasters and help in an advancement towards SDG Goals. It highlights
the embeddedness of SDGs in disaster mitigation as they tend to be
linked and interdependent. By linking sustainable development to
disaster mitigation one gets a strong justification for investment into
preparedness as a guarantee or insurance against loss and damages due to
unforeseen disasters.
