Mitigation WHAT IS HAZARD MITIGATION? Hazard mitigation is any sustainable action that reduces or eliminates long-term risk to people and property from future disasters. The best way to do this is to create a thorough plan well in advance, before any disasters happen.

Communities need to think about these steps to lessen the effects of disasters, respond effectively when they happen, and recover afterwards. The mitigation phase is all about finding ways to prevent disasters or lessen their impact. It involves thinking of long-term solutions to help reduce the effects of disasters before they happen.
