White paper - A systems approach for disaster risk reduction: Exploring the nexus of energy, food, and human mobility in the northern countries of Central America

This white paper argues that improving the region’s resilience and sustainability requires a holistic, systems approach and integrated prospective action that recognizes the impact of the various underlying conditions and vulnerabilities on amplifying disaster risks, and their link to growing trends of interconnected food and energy insecurities, and migration.

 In this white paper, it specifically: 

1. Identify the impact of social, economic, and political underlying conditions and vulnerabilities on the interconnected energy food-human mobility nexus under growing hazards in the Northern countries of Central America. 
2. Propose a systems framework to support evidence-based decision-making by disaster risk-threatened communities across scales. 
3. Identify prospective action areas and interventions for disaster risk reduction and improving community resilience
