Abstract
The development and progression in humankind’s understanding of the world and life, ensured a continuous evolution in the response to events threatening our livelihoods. Humankind also developed techniques to deal with natural hazards, either by aiming to contain the forces of nature, or by altering human own behavior. The humanitarian assistance and disaster relief are crucially important in order to protect the nations. This research employed literature review method. The results showed that every nation should prepare and manage their capabilities in Humanitarian Assistance and Disaster Relief (HADR), both in protection for own countries or in providing aids for the others. Military Operation Other Than War (MOOTW) does not involve the use or threat of violence but prioritizes the provision of HADR. In MOOTW, military forces synergize with other institutions/organizations, especially those related to diplomacy, economy, government, even politics and religion. Moreover, in handling disasters, especially in Indonesia, the combination between civilians and the military is crucial in realizing Civil-Military Cooperation (CIMIC) and Civil-Military Coordination (CMCoord). Under certain mechanism, the military power is only used to support civilian institution in HADR.

Summary
The development and progression in humankind’s understanding of the world and life, ensured a continuous evolution in the response to events threatening our livelihoods. By 30 June 2020, 9.8 million people had been newly displaced by disasters. This condition is assumed to be risen, as displacements are yet to be accounted for from major flooding in Asia and the Sahel region, and the typhoon season in East Asia and the Pacific. Climate change and extreme weather events are key drivers of the recent rise in global hunger and food insecurity. In 2019, 34 million people suffered from weather-driven acute food insecurity – a 17 per cent increase from the previous year. These numbers are expected to rise, as more than 80 per cent of the world’s most food insecure people live in disaster-prone countries [2]
