Center for Disaster Management

The Center for Disaster Management was established in 1996 with support from the National Disaster Management Division. The Central Government, through NIDM, NDMA, and MHA, supported the functioning of CDM in the state until March 2017. Since April 2017, the center has been functioning under the Disaster Management Department of the State. The Center for Disaster Management (CDM), YASHADA conducts Disaster Management-related trainings for government and non-government officers and the community. The trainings are conducted inside the premises of YASHADA or in respective districts as per their demands. The training capsule encompasses various DM-related initiatives taken by the central and state governments, after assessing the training needs identified (TNA) for various stakeholders.
The center strives to make the community resilient to disasters, and for that, apart from knowledge and skills related to the subject, emphasis is laid on innovation and hands-on practical work related to various activities of Disaster Management. Focusing on the above issues, trainings were planned and effectively conducted during the past training years.
