It causes for damage the property, and lives of normal social and economic life system. In this matter, a natural phenomena or man made mistakes constitute disasters to a society and they are related to environment .The affected persons may face multiple human rights challenges in the aftermath of natural disasters. Many of the defining features of emergencies - displacement, breakdown in family and social structures, lack of humanitarian access, fall of traditional value systems, culture of violence, weak governance, absence of accountability and lack of access to health services is casus for violations of human rights in the time of natural disaster. More ever they may be the result of inappropriate policies negligence of administrative system. Traditionally natural disasters have been seen as situations that create challenges and problems mainly of a humanitarian nature. However increasingly, it has come to be recognized, that human rights protection also need to be provided in these contexts. The unequal access to assistance, discrimination in aid provision, enforced relocation, sexual and gender-based violence, loss of documentation, recruitment of children in to fighting forces, unsafe or involuntary return or resettlement, and issues of property restitution are other some of the problems that are often encountered by those affected by the consequences of natural disasters. Introduction: Natural disasters always cause severe losses. These losses cover all aspects of human life, having a physical, psychological, economic and cultural impact. The physical impact takes the form of death and injury, as well as environmental damage and the destruction of buildings and infrastructure. The psychological impact takes the form of trauma, which is suffered by many of the survivors. A.B. Susanto, an Indonesian disaster management expert, has stated that there are several factors which make the consequences of a natural disaster even worse. These include poverty, dense population and urbanization, all of which make it very difficult to get sufficient aid to large numbers of people, who have nowhere else to go when disaster strikes. In addition, environmental destruction through deforestation and logging can lead to floods and lack of information and awareness may also already create difficult situations in the wake of a natural event. Moreover, the lack of any legal enforcement mechanism may hamper disaster management. “Human Rights” are the basic opportunity created by administrative institution to which all human beings should be entitled. There are three types of human rights, the first being civil and political rights, most commonly associated with capitalist societies, where citizens claim the freedom to express their opinions freely. The second type is economic, social and cultural rights, most commonly associated with socialist societies, where citizens claim the rights to education, work, healthcare etc. The third is the claim to rights such as peace, self-determination, development, minority rights, clean environment etc. DISASTER- A GLOBAL CHALLENGE During the past fifty years, disasters have caused major loss of human lives and livelihoods, the destruction of economic and social infrastructure as well as environmental damages. Economic losses have increased almost ten times during this period. Lack of capacity to limit the impact of disaster remains a major burden for developing countries. There is a rapid increase in the number of natural disasters in the second half of the twentieth century. It is difficult for people to change their behavior to reduce risk from disaster that few have ever witnessed. Although many acts of nature cannot be predicted and controlled, better knowledge about these actions can at least reduce the extent of damage. People could be stronger and get prepared to face the natural disaster and their effects. They can also adopt prevention steps for environmental disasters when it causes mass destruction and loss of life. TYPS OF DISASTER Disaster is an event which causes sudden disruption to the normal life of a society. It causes for damage the property, and lives of normal social and economic life system. In this matter, a natural phenomenon or manmade mistakes constitute disasters to a society and they are related to environment.
