We coordinate
international efforts in disaster risk reduction and guide, monitor as well as report regularly on progress of the implementation of the Hyogo Framework for Action. We organize a biennial Global Platform on disaster risk reduction with leaders and decision makers to advance risk reduction policies and support the establishment of regional, national and thematic platforms.

We campaign and advocate
to create global awareness of disaster risk reduction benefits and empower people to reduce their vulnerability to hazards. Our current campaigns focus on safer schools and hospitals as well as resilient cities.

We encourage
for greater investments in risk reduction actions to protect people’s lives and assets including climate change adaptation, more education on DRR and increased participation of men and women in the decision making process.

We inform and connect people by providing practical services and tools such as the risk reduction website PreventionWeb, publications on good practices, country profiles and the Global Assessment Report on Disaster Risk Reduction which is an authoritative analysis of global disaster risks and trends.
