Community Planning & Capacity Building
NDRF Principle: Resilience and Sustainability
A successful recovery process promotes practices that minimize the community’s risk to all hazards and strengthens its ability to withstand and recover from future disasters, which constitutes a community’s resiliency.
Community Planning & Capacity Building
• Fundamental to the implementation of a well-orchestrated recovery process
• Pre-disaster recovery planning enables effective coordination of recovery activities and expedites a unified recovery effort
• Post-disaster recovery planning forms the foundation for allocating resources and provides the benchmark for progress

Moving Beyond the Baseline
Example: Infrastructure
Baseline

systems, consolidate infrastructure, or use reconstruction to facilitate economic,
housing or hazard mitigation strategies?
