Why is the disaster management training required?

The phenomenon of disasters can be associated with the inner-dynamics of nature or the effect of the human factor in the process of technology use, and their results may be identified with the loss of property and the loss of life. On a conceptual basis, causing physical, economic, social, and psychological damages and interfering with the ongoing life, the disaster affects all parts or a certain part of society through its formation. If the local forces are not enough to overcome the problems, the results might not be easily manageable. Natural disasters, i.e. earthquake, flood, landslide, avalanche, tsunami, volcano eruption etc., can be listed as technology and/or man-made disasters, major industrial accidents, nuclear explosions, biological weapons, climate change and so on. The distorted development of cities and the increase in the number of people living in the city make cities vulnerable to disasters. The phenomenon of disaster, which has led to the displacement of many civilizations since the formation of the world, is seen as an important problem with the effect of the urbanization level. In recent years, irregular precipitation, insufficient infrastructure and distorted urbanization, especially in big cities bring life to a halt from time to time. Turkey, because of its tectonic formation, geological structure, topography, and certain meteorological reasons, has always been a country with a variety of natural hazard risks. Our country is located in the Mediterranean, Alpine and Himalayan seismic zones which is one of the active seismic zones. 92% of the population, 95% of the settlements are located in the earthquake zone of varying degrees, and a significant part of the industry is still in the earthquake-risk zone. In addition to the loss of life and property, every year, billion dollars of economic losses occur. The vast majority of life losses are caused by unconsciousness and the lack of supervision. The phenomenon of disaster, which requires a multidisciplinary education, is not sufficiently involved in educational processes. This is one of the most important deficiencies in the process of upbringing a conscious community. In every aspect of educational life, the impact of education on the process of acquiring the correct behaviour is known. Education should start in the family and continue throughout primary, secondary and high school education. In the education process, the fact that disaster phenomenon is included in the subject of many courses is not enough to change the behaviours. On the other hand, in our country, a
