Abstract :Increasingly, in this century that we have evolved into a risk society, disasters negatively affect them in many ways and weaken their resilience. Consequently, in recent years, the global focus has been on developing disaster resilience. Because increasing the resilience of the society means reducing the effects of the disaster. Therefore, creating disaster-resilient communities is the most effective way to protect a community's future. This study aims to discuss the concept of disaster resilience, the place and importance of disaster resilience in disaster management, and the steps taken in the international context in a broader framework. Accordingly, building disaster-resilient societies is crucial for successful and integrated disaster management and sustainable development.Keywords : Disaster, Disaster Management, Resilience, Disaster Resilience, Disaster-resilient society.
