Abstract :This article aims to critically analyze the legal and democratic framework of disaster response within the context of the Republic of Türkiye Presidential Decrees (PDs) issued during the state of emergency (SOE) declared following the earthquakes in Kahramanmaras on February 6th. This research analyzed the PDs issued during the SOE in ten provinces using content analysis techniques. The published PDs’ have been analyzed by dividing them into three groups: operational, organizational, and psychological response, and thus a conceptual approach to disaster response management has been put forward. It is concluded that actively pursuing legal remedies during disaster response enhances the effectiveness of interventions and provides a valid, democratic, and legal basis for processes, thereby optimizing disaster response and crisis management. As such, the article pointed out that the proactive policy in disaster intervention strategy during the Kahramanmaras Earthquakes offered valuable lessons for handling future disasters.Keywords : Afet Müdahale Yönetimi, Cumhurbaşkanlığı Kararnameleri, Operasyonel Müdahale, Organizasyonel Müdahale, Psikolojik Müdahale
