Words into Action: National Disaster Risk Assessment
About
In partnership with UNITAR's CIFAL network, UNDRR is presenting several contextually-specific mini-launches for the Words Into Action Guide on National Disaster Risk Assessment and the associated online training package.
These events will employ locally relevant case studies as a mechanism for exploring and applying the resources and material and to highlight the flexibility, utility and user-oriented design of the guide. The online events will be open for participants from any region but will be aligned with appropriate time-zones and the case studies of the presenting regions.
Audience
The sessions are designed for local, regional and national authorities overseeing disaster risk assessments and related stakeholders interested in learning about processes associated with good risk assessments.
