Abstract: The present study is a maiden attempt to conduct a comprehensive back-of-the envelope analysis of different coping strategies adopted at the community level in highlands of Kerala. For the research, out of the 14 districts of Kerala, Idukki and Wayanad districts have purposively been selected for the analysis of coping strategies in highland. Adimali and Vellathooval panchayats were selected for coping strategy assessment in Idukki district and Panamaram and Meppadi panchayats were selected from Wayanad for the study. Using proportionate sampling, 257 respondents has been selected for the study. For the analysis Community based Coping Strategies Index for highlands of Kerala was developed. Highest mean value was obtained for the component food security, and the component with higher number of strategies greater than the mean value also belongs to food security followed by housing and shelter. The component with the lowest number of strategies above the mean value belongs to the component of means of livelihoods. Documentation of community based community strategies throws light on the different ways, different communities behave at the time of disasters. The study concluded that in the case of community level coping mechanisms, most of the coping mechanisms were implemented during the disaster phase, and the component given the most attention was food and security. This study therefore can be used by the policy makers to formulate relief and rescue measures as per the strengths and weaknesses of the community.
