International Journal of Emergency Management (IJEM), Vol. 12, No. 4, 2016

Abstract: For all the hazardous acts of the nature, it is the people who suffer the sudden onset of disasters. The vulnerability of profile of these communities is increasing with increase in time. As the world moves towards a tomorrow that is more disaster prone, it is essential to understand how to face it. However, at the advent of a disaster it is the humanitarian logistics organisation that comes into full action along with the other actors of disaster management. An increasing number of disaster relief organisations are required to report the social, economic and ecological aspects of their operations. Hence, the current study proposes a framework bringing together key focus areas for humanitarian organisations in-line with sustainability using triple bottom line.
