Disaster risk management stays a continuous multi-layered understanding, evaluating, controlling, and measuring of the process of the natural catastrophe. Disaster risk management consists of four stages which are identifying the hazard, assessing the risk, controlling the risk, and measuring the risk control. Hazard will refer in the paper the natural perils. Meantime, it is proved that global warming affects the frequency and the magnitude of extreme natural hazards. And the natural disaster profile of Turkey is also influenced. Unfortunately, the country suffers immensely in loss of human, economic, and time and it steps forward to prevent the following losses. Turkey is also one of the countries which signed on the Sendai Framework that guides countries to manage and overcome the possible due to natural hazards in the globe. To avert the risk at any level, identification and prevention of the existing risks, control and monitor of the risk, mental and physical preparedness, and avoidance of new risk constructions are vital. It needs to be emphasized that the involvement of people at each stage is essential to reach success.
