About
You are cordially invited to the launch of a new report on disaster risk reduction.
Professors Ian Davis and David Alexander have produced a new IRDR Occasional Paper on disaster risk reduction. Professor Davis is a UN Sasakawa Prize laureate and has had a long and distinguished career as an architect and a world-renowned expert on disasters and the built environment. He asked 36 experts in the field to send him reflections on progress in DRR. The responses, which were copious, were edited into a systematic account. The result is a unique insight into the achievements, setbacks and future challenges of the field.
Distinguished participants in this exercise and contributors to this unique venture will be discussing DRR and the report on Thursday 26 May 2022 11:00-12:30 London time (GMT+1hr). The meeting can be accessed freely on Zoom and the report can be freely downloaded here.
