A proposal to link disaster risk reduction to sustainable development – DR2AD model version 1.0
This document presents JICA’s Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) model which aims to quantitatively demonstrate that disaster risk reduction investment is essential to achieve sustainable development, and to make a compelling explanation that there is a definite co-relation between DRR and sustainable development. The model aims to simulate impacts on 1) economic growth under long-term disaster risk with or without DRR investment, and on 2) the Gini coefficient in consequence of DRR investment.
The publication is focused on preparation for the consideration of the post-2015 framework for disaster risk reductionas well as the post-2015 development framework.
