The Centre for Science and Technology of the Non Aligned and other Developing Countries (NAM S&T) Centre) has brought out a publication entitled Management of Natural Disaster in Developing Countries based on the proceedings of the International Workshop on the above subject held in Asian Institute of Technology (AIT) Bangkok Thailand 24 27 January 2000. Natural hazards are naturally occurring processes forming an experience to human being depending on where one lives. Floods volcanoes tornadoes bushfires and hurricanes are the possible threats which affect the environment and thus our lives. To find out the outcome of the problem it requires exploring the reason of its origin and the possible antidotes so that it can dwindle to some extent. Planning managing and implementing environmentally sound strategies are the supreme measures in this concern. Also organizing a series of workshops / trainings on management of natural disaster could be an aid in consecutive steps. Hence the above workshop was organised and the proceedings of the workshop have been arranged in a sequential manner. The volume contents mainly aim at identifying areas of mitigating flood cyclone and storm surge disaster. The status reports from well know experts from different countries namely Bangladesh India Indonesia Malaysia Mauritius Nepal Pakistan Syria Thailand and Vietnam are also included in this volume. 202 pp.
