International Journal of Disaster Risk Management

About the Journal

The International Journal of Disaster Risk Management (IJDRM) is a double-blind peer-reviewed (twice a year), open-access, international journal that serves all aspects of disaster and hazard studies, policy, and management. 

The journal provides a platform for academics, policy-makers, practitioners, and humanitarian actors to publish high-quality contributions concerning both natural hazards and disasters (e.g., earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, tsunamis, pandemics) and man-made or technological hazards (e.g., terrorism, cyber-attacks, industrial accidents, hazardous materials, technological failures), as well as complex emergencies and global crises.

IJDRM seeks to foster dialogue and collaboration across disciplines to reduce disaster risks and enhance resilience within the broad framework of sustainable development and planetary boundaries.

We welcome research that addresses the full cycle of disaster risk management — including prevention, preparedness, response, recovery, and mitigation — at all scales and across diverse contexts.

Scope of the Journal

IJDRM covers, but is not limited to, the following thematic areas:

  • Disaster and crisis management theory and practice
    Conceptual frameworks, evolving paradigms, and practical approaches to managing diverse hazards.

  • Risk awareness, perception, and assessment
    Public risk perception, risk communication, early warning systems, and decision-making under uncertainty.

  • Hazard and vulnerability analysis
    Methods and case studies addressing physical, social, economic, and environmental vulnerabilities, and multi-hazard risk assessments.

  • Knowledge development and capacity building
    Disaster education, training, public awareness, research innovation, and knowledge dissemination strategies.

  • Public commitment and institutional frameworks
    Legal, policy, organizational, and community-based mechanisms for risk governance and stakeholder coordination.

  • Disaster prevention, mitigation, response, and recovery planning
    Integrated strategies, best practices, and policy implementation at local, national, and international levels.

  • Critical infrastructure protection and continuity planning
    Safeguarding essential services and systems before, during, and after disasters.

  • Climate change adaptation and environmental risks
    Intersections between climate adaptation and disaster risk reduction, including nature-based solutions.

  • Health, mental health, and humanitarian response
    Emergency medical services, psychosocial support, and public health resilience.

The Scientific-Professional Society for Disaster Risk Management (SPS-DRM)(Naučno-stručno društvo za upravljanje rizicima u vanrednim situacijama) is a dynamic, non-governmental, non-profit organization dedicated to advancing the field of disaster risk management. Established for an indefinite period, our mission is to elevate the theoretical knowledge base, conduct cutting-edge quantitative and qualitative research, organize impactful national and international conferences, launch and manage academic journals, deliver comprehensive training programs, and perform thorough risk assessments, along with other academic activities in this vital field. Recognizing the immeasurable importance and pivotal role of non-governmental organizations and civil society in disaster risk management, including their proactive contributions to public policy, risk reduction actions, advocacy for enhanced preparedness and resilience, aid to affected individuals, and collaboration with emergency response services, Prof. Dr. Vladimir M. Cvetković founded NSDR-URVS on June 15, 2018. This organization unites scientists and practitioners from Serbia and the region to collectively advance theoretical and empirical principles and support local decision-makers and leaders in managing disaster situations effectively.

The Scientific-Professional Society for Disaster Risk Management (NSDR-URVS) is led by President Prof. Dr. Vladimir M. Cvetković, with Anja Beli serving as the Secretary. NSDR-URVS boasts a diverse membership of over 1,500 individuals, including professors from all state and private universities and faculties in Serbia, scientific researchers, practitioners (such as members of the police force, fire and rescue units, emergency medical services, military, and security-related NGOs), as well as students and young professionals directly or indirectly involved in research and practical activities related to emergency situations.
