Özet

This study thoroughly examines the challenges, limitations, and future directions encountered in landslide management in the literature. Similar to other disasters, landslides pose significant threats to the normal flow of life, infrastructure, and the environment, necessitating effective management strategies. The reduction and/or prevention of damages caused by landslides are achievable through both physical and non-physical methods. In this context, this study discusses and extensively explores the scope of damage reduction efforts while delving into landslide management. Furthermore, this study highlights various challenges faced in landslide management, such as limited resources, technical expertise, and data availability, while offering sustainable approaches for landslide disaster management within the insights of landslide management approaches. Additionally, it proposes a comprehensive approach that combines effective landslide management, mitigates the impacts of these natural disasters, and integrates community participation with policy support. Moreover, it emphasizes the importance of landslide management studies considered as "alternative management strategies" that merge various tools and approaches to provide a more comprehensive solution and are regarded as alternatives to existing traditional approaches.
