The main purpose of the paper is to analyse the current situation and to provide suggestions for improving the Latvian system of wind disaster management by examining such sources as various scientific literature, different normative acts and specific practical examples. This paper briefly reviews the improvement possibilities to the Latvian system of wind disaster management by interaction between business, society and the state. The proposed hypothesis – timely, determined and coordinated interagency and interdepartmental cooperation – can minimize the effect and consequences of wind-related disasters. Several research methods, such as the analysis of academic and professional publications, and logical and comparative analysis, are applied in this research. The research results relate to the creation of disaster management policy methodology through increasing involvement of different stakeholders and development of deterrence measures. The main findings relate to the analysis of interaction of different public and private institutions for the management of wind induced disasters.
