Computer science Purpose-The objective of this research paper is to improve our understanding of knowledge sharing in Disaster Management (DM), since knowledge sharing is seen as one of the essential success factors for disaster management initiative.

The narrative approach was chosen because the collected papers were both qualitative and quantitative studies from existing literature.
