YTM Empowers Local NGOs Through Community-Based Disaster Risk Management Training

14th Jul 2025

Community & Nation Building

As part of the #NationalTrainingWeek initiative by HRD Corp, Yayasan TM (YTM) organised a free workshop titled "From Risk to Resilience." The workshop aimed to empower local NGOs and individuals — including humanitarian workers and volunteers — with essential skills in Community-Based Disaster Risk Management (CBDRM).

Participants were introduced to practical strategies across all stages of disaster management, from preparedness and emergency response to post-disaster recovery. The sessions also covered key topics such as rapid needs assessment, multi-stakeholder coordination, and designing inclusive recovery plans that uphold dignity, health, and social justice.

Special thanks to the experts from RED A Humanitarian Development Global (RED A) and National Defence University of Malaysia (UPNM) for their insightful knowledge sharing and leadership!

YTM remains committed to building a more resilient Malaysia by equipping communities with innovative and sustainable disaster response capabilities. Let’s create a safer future, together!
