Disaster responses often showcase government accountability by illustrating how effectively authorities manage crises. When governments fail to respond adequately or transparently, public trust erodes, leading to calls for accountability. Conversely, a successful response can enhance a government’s legitimacy. Effective coordination with local organizations, timely communication, and resource allocation are key indicators of how accountable a government is to its citizens in times of need. Moreover, scrutiny and feedback from the public and media during and after disasters help ensure that government actions align with societal expectations and responsibilities.
