N2  - The world has to cope with the results of an increasing number of disasters. If the planning and preparation for these disasters are to be effective, then national and international organizations are necessary to integrate the sources of advice and relief. Studies of disaster management have consistently highlighted coordination of resources as an essential element of effective response.
