The Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030 calls for the development of regional action plans and strategies to accelerate Asia-Pacific’s transformation to risk-informed development.

Under the theme of 'Building Resilient Economies in the Americas and the Caribbean', the ministers and heads of delegation gathered at the fourth high-level meeting of ministers and authorities put forward this declaration.

This Regional Action Plan works towards a concerted regional approach to supporting countries in their efforts to build whole-of-society resilience, reduce disaster risk and impacts, and contribute to the well-being of our societies.

This checklist is a companion tool to the Words into Action Guideline Disaster Displacement: How to Reduce Risk, Address Impacts and Strengthen Resilience (Words into Action on Disaster Displacement).

#OnlyTogether #DRRday National and local disaster risk reduction strategies for disaster risk reduction must be in place by the end of this year.

The experiences and evidence shared by participants during the event showed how disaster preparedness can make a difference and create positive effects on our societies.

Participants to the pledge commit to making disaster prevention and resilience a priority and accelerating the implementation of the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030 according to the EFDRR Roadmap 2021-2030.

The EFDRR Roadmap 2021-2030 identifies four shared priority areas to achieve the priorities of the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030, including 16 common action areas for development and investment and five enabling approaches.

Regional cooperation is rising, systemic governance is center stage and businesses are taking an important role in disaster risk reduction — vital steps towards the ultimate goal of saving lives and livelihoods.

This report appeals to relevant stakeholders to take actions that not only support SMEs, but promote overall resilience and mutual benefit.
