The correct answer is: Preparedness

Preparedness is the term that describes the process of preparing for an emergency or disaster before it occurs. This involves planning, organizing, training, and equipping individuals and communities to effectively respond to an emergency situation.

Response is the immediate actions taken during or directly after an emergency to save lives and prevent further damage. Mitigation involves taking actions to reduce or eliminate the long-term risk of a disaster.
