About
This article is about how mental health support and disaster risk reduction (DRR) can work together. It describes efforts to combine these fields, focusing on preparing for disasters rather than just responding after they happen. The review found many projects and resources but noted a lack of clear guidelines or definitions for integrating mental health into DRR plans. It highlights the need for more evidence-based practices and better collaboration between experts in both areas to improve resilience before emergencies occur.
