摘要

Background

Community-based disaster risk management has emerged as a highly effective approach, emphasizing the importance of local institutions. As integral parts of communities, schools possess valuable resources that can play a crucial role in supporting government agencies in managing disasters efficiently. Therefore, this study identified the dimensions and components of schools participation in disaster risk management.

Methods

A comprehensive search was conducted across key electronic databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus, focusing on English-language articles published up to June 8, 2024. Additionally, searches were performed on organizational websites such as WHO, CDC, FEMA, IFRC, UN, INEE, and Save the Children. Study selection followed the PRISMA 2020 guidelines, and thematic analysis was employed to examine the findings.

Results

Finally, of 7824 selected records, 17 papers were included in the final analysis. Six main themes, 26 categories, and 61 subcategories were revealed. The main themes included planning and preparedness, education and awareness, Communication and Collaboration, Equipment and Infrastructure, Evaluation and Improvement, Challenges and Solutions.

Conclusions

Schools are central to disaster risk management and must be integrated into national frameworks through formal legislation. Strengthening preparedness requires investment in infrastructure, regular assessments, and inclusive education programs. Stakeholder collaboration especially with families, NGOs, and local authorities enhances coordination and community awareness. Sustainable funding and flexible, localized strategies are essential, particularly in underserved areas. Future research should focus on cost-effective models, digital tools, and scalable practices across diverse contexts.
