This report identifies key challenges and opportunities for progress in fields of disaster risk reduction based on the discussions held at the Forum. It is structured around the six working themes of the Forum, which include the emerging challenges of rapid urbanisation and climate change for disaster risk; new opportunities for risk reduction coming from a growing body of work and experience on risk transfer; and, established areas of practice that continue to provide challenges as well as opportunities for risk reduction – local level working, risk governance and translating knowledge into action.
The ProVention Forum 2007 ‘Making disaster risk reduction work’ was held in Dar es Salaam, 13-15 February 2007 and brought together more than 100 partners.
