UNISDR
Disasters are often described as a result of the combination of: the exposure to a hazard; the conditions of vulnerability that are present; and insufficient capacity or measures to reduce or cope with the potential negative consequences. Disaster impacts may include loss of life, injury, disease and other negative effects on human physical, mental and social well-being, together with damage to property, destruction of assets, loss of services, social and economic disruption and environmental degradation.

Événement qui se produit lorsque la manifestation d’un danger affecte une collectivité vulnérable d’une façon qui dépasse ou qui accable sa capacité à faire face à la situation et qui peut causer un prejudice grave à la sécurité, à la santé et au bien-être de la population, ou endommager les biens ou l’environnement. [9]
A disaster may be triggered by a naturally occurring phenomenon which has its origins within the geophysical or biological environment or by human action or error, whether malicious or unintentional, including technological failures, accidents and terrorist acts.

- Περιφερειακή καταστροφή μικρής έντασης νοείται αυτή για την αντιμετώπιση της οποίας αρκεί το δυναμικό και τα μέσα πολιτικής προστασίας της περιφέρειας. (Small-scale Regional Disaster is one that can be dealt with the Civil Protection Resources of the region)
- Περιφερειακή καταστροφή μεγάλης έντασης νοείται αυτή για την αντιμετώπιση της οποίας απαιτείται η διάθεση δυναμικού και μέσων πολιτικής προστασίας και από άλλες περιφέρειες ή και από κεντρικές υπηρεσίες και φορείς. (Large-scale Regional Disaster is one that requires the assignment of Civil Protection Resources from other regions and/or from central services or authorities)
- Τοπική καταστροφή μικρής έντασης νοείται αυτή για την αντιμετώπιση της οποίας αρκεί το δυναμικό και τα μέσα πολιτικής προστασίας σε επίπεδο νομού. (Small-scale Local Disaster is one that can be dealt with the Civil Protection Resources of a county).
