Towards a safer and resilient Nagaland: what we do, why we do, and how we learn

This publication explores how Nagaland is building a more resilient and disaster-ready system through coordinated efforts involving government institutions, local communities, and international partners. It emphasizes that resilience is achieved not through isolated initiatives but through interconnected systems linking policy, preparedness, knowledge, finance, and community engagement.

The report highlights that Nagaland’s approach, combining data systems, early warning, risk financing, institutional coordination, and community-based planning, effectively addresses multiple hazards such as landslides, floods, and climate variability. It demonstrates that resilience is strongest when governance, science, finance, and trust operate together, offering a model that can be applied beyond the region.
