The world faces difficulties managing disasters while making efforts to slowing
the spread of COVID-19. The paper aims at proposing policies and approaches to
manage dual disasters of flooding and COVID-19. It reviews on-going efforts of
organizations in the humanitarian assistance, water and sanitation, disaster
management and health sectors. Based on review works the policy was recommended.
The objective of the policy is to protect human life, in particular, vulnerable
groups, from the human security perspective. Local organizations and communities
play an important role in disaster management, and risk information supported by
scientific knowledge is essential. As the experience of disaster management
shows, various organizations including health and water should be coordinated to
conduct measures.
