Globally vulnerability among communities affects the process of human development. Recurring natural hazards are empirically traced with incidents that include death, asset loss, food and water insecurity, lack of access to health services, disruption in access to market services and above all disrupted livelihoods.

National Alliance for Risk Reduction and Response Initiatives (NARRI) with its ten member organizations steps in with its long experience to address local problems keeping global progression into consideration.
