Abstract	This work attempts to explain the beginnings and current state of the Disaster Risk Reduction Management in Honduras, with the purpose of having a vision of its development in order to take actions that could help to reduce the impacts of disasters. The qualitative research method used here involved the use of interviews to coordinators of disaster risk reduction management projects, and also with directors of governmental and international institutions working in the subject, consultation of available literature, and also experiences of the authors working in this topic. The results help to understand the current state of the disaster risk reduction in the country in different areas of interest such as the evolution of the legal framework, what are the institutions working in GRRD in Honduras, capacity building, weaknesses, previous research works in the subject, hazards that have caused great damage and losses, climate change, education, to determine the most vulnerable regions to the occurrence of frequent hazards and the preparedness of the country to cope with a disaster of major proportions. Finally, we discuss the guidelines that should be taken in the GRRD in the country. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5377/rct.v0i9.705 Revista Ciencia y Tecnologia, No. 9, Diciembre 2011 pp.4-15
