Disasters affect everyone but not equally. In fast-growing urban settlements like Lucky Summer, disasters such as floods, fires, and disease outbreaks are not distant possibilities, they are lived realities. This toolkit responds to the urgent need to equip communities with practical, locally relevant skills and knowledge to prepare for, reduce, and recover from disaster events.Disaster preparedness is no longer the job of government alone. It begins at the household, takes root at the court or estate, and grows through the collective action of neighbours, youth groups, schools, women’s associations, and faith-based organisations.
