Our core belief is that disaster response begins with preparedness, and that both disaster preparedness and response should integrate the efforts of governments, militaries, NGOs and the private sector. By strengthening disaster preparedness, response and recovery, Peace Winds seeks to reduce the high human, political and economic costs of natural disasters and man-made conflicts around the world.
