In order to promote the exchange of experiences and a coordinated response to the COVID-19 pandemic, representatives of the governing bodies for disaster risk management (DRM) of different countries in the Americas and Caribbean region met on April 14. This initiative, proposed and organized jointly by the UNDRR Regional Office for the Americas and the Caribbean, CEPREDENAC and the Central American Integration System (SICA), was attended by various countries of the region and subregional intergovernmental organizations involved in disaster risk management. More than 80 participants interacted in this dialogue, including observers from other relevant institutions, such as donors and other stakeholders.
