Dr. Dijan Bhattarai delivered this presentation on perspective and collaboration of NDRRMA on emerging challenges of disaster. The presentation delves into these challenges, such as an annual mortality of approximately 400 people attributed to geophysical, climatological, and hydrological disasters. It also addresses the global temperature rise, resulting in snowmelt, avalanches, adverse effects on ecosystems, and the consequences of heavy rainfall and off-season monsoons, which impact agricultural crops, food security, healthcare, employment, and more.
