WHO WE ARE

Established in 2019 to promote community-centric disaster risk management, Disaster Nomad was built on the belief that every person has the right to a safe, sustainable and resilient future. We specialise in building resilience throughout the disaster continuum, offering proactive solutions that address disaster-causing hazards. 

WHAT WE DO

We have successfully worked with communities, international disaster relief non-profits, independent agencies, corporates, and governmental disaster management centres. We strive to support impacted populations by allowing them to take the lead and filling the gaps where needed.  We believe that if you listen to those affected, the answers find you.

our services

Our success as a consultancy is rooted in our founder’s years of international deployment experience and our dynamic partnerships.

We understand that every entity is different and that the road to building disaster resilience is not linear; that’s why we work with our clients to create service packages that are tailored to their needs. We have 6 core service offerings that we adapt to meet the needs of our clients. We have also partnered with Baotree to insure that monitoring and evaluation form the foundation for achieving objectives.
