Fourth annual roundtable for Canada's Platform for disaster risk reduction

The purpose of the Annual National Roundtable on Disaster Risk Reduction (the Roundtable) is to bring together the general membership of Canada's Platform for Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) in an open, inclusive, equitable forum. The Roundtable serves as a venue for Canada's ongoing national dialogue on DRR, the administrative annual general meeting for the Platform, and an opportunity for deliberative dialogue among DRR stakeholders.

Canada's Platform will be hosting the Fourth Annual National Roundtable on DRR in Regina, Saskatchewan, on November 5, 2013. The Roundtable serves as an inclusive multi-sectoral consultative mechanism to advance disaster risk reduction.

This full day event is open to any interested participants, including: private sector; all-levels of government; non-governmental organizations; academia; and the general public.

As with previous years, the Roundtable will be followed by the Canadian Risk and Hazards Network (CRHNet) annual symposium November 6-8, 2013.
