<p>This study, focusing on the sustainable crisis communication literature in disaster management, aims to meta-thematically analyze academic articles on disaster management published in the world and especially in countries such as America and Japan, which frequently struggle with disasters. United Nations (UN) definition of disaster; It is defined as "all kinds of serious events that cause loss of life, physical, economic and social losses for people, affect societies by stopping or interrupting normal life, and cannot be coped with by local means." The definition of crisis is explained in social sciences as "a state of tension that occurs as a result of a significant disruption of normal relations in the face of an unexpected situation or any development, and the ways found to solve the problem encountered are not sufficient" (Demir and Acar, 2015: 65). The study was carried out through international databases and directories. In this context, databases such as Scopus, Web of Science and Science Direct constitute the sample of the research. Within the scope of the study created in a qualitative pattern, academic articles obtained from the databases in question were examined with the meta-thematic analysis method. The research findings are interpreted according to certain themes and the details of the findings are reflected in the conclusion of the study, ending with the interpretation of the findings on what kind of studies have been done on sustainable crisis communication in disaster management in the international arena and suggestions for future studies to be conducted in Turkey. </p>
