Disaster risk reduction work in India

World Vision India has been working with communities in 118 projects across the country on community disaster preparedness initiatives, developing community task forces with special skills in early warning, search and rescue, first aid, shelter management, and WASH. World Vision India has also been working on ecosystem-based initiatives such as farmer-managed natural regeneration, community-level water management, improving green cover, and clean energy applications. School-safety programme is also a priority in all operational areas.

PRIORITIES IN 2022-2026
