Towards a post-2015 framework for disaster risk reduction

This UNISDR paper outlines substantive issues and a process of consultations as the disaster risk reduction community heads toward the end date of the current blueprint for global disaster risk reduction, the Hyogo Framework of Action 2005-2015: Building the Resilience of Nations and Communities to Disasters.

It provides background information; an outline of trends, progress and challenges; and, a discussion on what form of a post-2015 framework. The paper also outlines a consultation process, timeline, and maps out main events to 2015.

UNISDR will be in further contact with stakeholders regarding details and follow-up on the consultations.
