All India Disaster Mitigation Institute (AIDMI), is a young professional activity unit. It has been build by a multi disciplinary, multi sectoral, multi experienced and committed team of technicians, professional, field practitioners and volunteers (local community and international). Its 57-member team is drawn from fields as diverse as journalism, GIS, social work, urban planning, architecture, engineering, data management, economics, finance, accounts, information technology, business management, political science and disaster management. These multiple team characteristics bring varied perspectives to AIDMI's work. In fact AIDMI's broad based, open, inclusive and ever evolving approach to disaster mitigation owes its allegiance to its dynamic team.

The team is flexible and horizontal. This helps timely response to the demands of different disasters, communities and partners. Despite being spread across geographical space and activity centres, mechanisms for interaction and coordination in weekly meetings, regular team monitoring and reviews facilitate cross activity centre and cross geographical learning exchange. The practice of cross activity center secondments helps new ideas and varied approached spread leading to an integrated approach to project activities. This also helps the team develop internal skills and capacities. Together the AIDMI team works towards translating its learnings into action with the aim of better disaster response and disaster risk mitigation.
