This chapter highlights that disasters such as 2015 Nepal earthquake are opportunities to learn from so that mechanisms are put in place that can prevent the reproduction of the vulnerabilities that caused losses. It explores how to build resilience within the ongoing social and political dynamics in a multi-hazard context.
