Which phase of emergency management focuses on planning for disaster scenarios and improving response capabilities?

Mitigation
Response
Preparedness
Recovery

The correct answer is: Preparedness

The phase of emergency management that centers on planning for disaster scenarios and enhancing response capabilities is indeed preparedness. This stage involves developing plans, conducting training, and simulating disaster scenarios to ensure that individuals and organizations are ready to respond effectively when an emergency occurs. Preparedness also encompasses the creation of emergency response plans, coordination among various agencies, and the establishment of communication systems, all aimed at improving the overall effectiveness of response efforts during actual emergencies. In contrast, mitigation focuses on reducing the impact of disasters before they occur, response centers on immediate actions during and after a disaster, and recovery deals with restoring the community and addressing the aftermath of an incident.
