Abstract

This study explores the scope, difficulties, limitations, and future directions of landslide management. Landslides pose significant threats to human lives, infrastructure, and the environment, necessitating effective management strategies. The study begins by introducing the topic of landslide management and its importance in mitigating landslide risks. It then delves into the scope of landslide management, including activities such as early warning systems, hazard mapping, and slope stabilization. The study highlights the various challenges faced in landslide management, such as limited resources, technical expertise, and data availability. Additionally, it discusses the limitations of current landslide management practices, emphasizing their inability to completely prevent landslides and the reliance on available technologies. Furthermore, the study presents case studies to provide real-world examples and insights into landslide management approaches. Future directions and opportunities in landslide management are explored, including the integration of advanced technologies, community-based approaches, and improved risk assessment techniques. The study concludes by emphasizing the need for a holistic approach that combines scientific expertise, community engagement, and policy support to achieve effective landslide management and reduce the impacts of these natural hazards.
