    Disaster risk reduction is everyone's business.

    Disaster risk reduction includes disciplines like disaster

    management, disaster mitigation and disaster preparedness,

    but DRR is also part of sustainable development. In order for

    development activities to be sustainable they must also reduce

    disaster risk. On the other hand, unsound development policies

    will increase disaster risk - and disaster losses. Thus, DRR

    involves every part of society, every part of government, and

    every part of the professional and private sector.

    Upcoming Event

    The Fourth Session of the Global

    Platform for Disaster Risk Reduction will

    take place in Geneva, Switzerland in May

    2013.
