ABSTRACT
This report on the findings of studies under the Disaster Mitigation Programme in Perú (PMDP) begins by providing relevant examples to explain the reason for the inclusion of basic general concepts concerning the various aspects of natural hazards and the simple measures which can contribute to their prevention and mitigation. The introduction also describes the main working methods of the PMDP and its national and international framework. This is followed by a detailed description of the organization, participating entities and the functioning of the PMDP.
