Regional Assessment Reports on Disaster Risk Reduction (RAR)
The UNRR Regional Assessment Reports on Disaster Risk Reductions (RAR) provide an understanding of the regional risks and progress in risk reduction, while highlighting the key issues and challenges.

RAR reports are influenced by the Global Assessment Report on Disaster Risk Reduction, and offer an update on progress made in implementing the Sendai Framework’s outcome, goal, targets and priorities, while identifying entry points for improving coherence with climate change adaptation and sustainable development. It also provides an analysis of region-specific systemic risk drivers, including a contextualized discussion on vulnerability, rapid urbanisation, conflict and food security.
