In order to respond to anticipated risks and hazards, all countries in the West Region of South East Europe (SEE) have started or are preparing to start National Platforms for Disaster Risk Reduction.
In this process all National Platforms need to be harmonized for easier access to country specific and cross border assistance because none of the SEE countries have the capacity to deal with the consequences of a large catastrophe.
The SEE Sub-regional platform for DRR is a set of conclusions, guidelines, and standards for disaster risk reduction against natural, technological and other anthropogenic disasters along with the realization of more effective communication and coordination between all the relevant factors in the area of the overall security of the West Subregion of SEE.
The Sendai Framework Voluntary Commitments (SFVC) online platform allows stakeholders to inform the public about their work on DRR. The SFVC online platform is a useful toolto know who is doing what and where for the implementation of the Sendai Framework, which could foster potential collaboration among stakeholders. All stakeholders (private sector, civil society organizations, academia, media, local governments, etc.) working on DRR can submit their commitments and report on their progress and deliverables.
