  • ID: PE6

Description

The UNISDR and the ISDR System partners have been working closely with Parties through UNFCCC processes to raise awareness of the role of disaster risk reduction in climate change adaptation and to draw attention to the existing mechanisms and tools for disaster risk reduction. While disaster risk managers have participated and been available for guidance at key UNFCCC meetings, the climate change community has been less active in disaster risk reduction processes. The Global Platform represents an opportunity engage the climate change community directly in DRR working processes and to seek high level endorsement and commitment from the disaster risk reduction community on ways forward in this critical area of action.
