Description

The event is a continuation of the pre-session event held on Sunday 19 May 'Demystifying Grassroots Partnerships: Building Community Resilience'.

The Community P r a c t i t i o n e r s Academy invites
Grassroots leaders working as community p r a c t i t i o n e r s in community resilience and disaster risk and reduction to convene, share their practices and consolidate their priorities towards the 2013 UNISDR Global Platform and the post-2015 framework for disaster risk reduction (HFA2).

While the Sunday session discussed effective practices and partnerships that build climate resilience, adopted a set of working agreements and shared understandings and identified key elements of a 2 year collaborative strategic plan for the Community Practitioners Platform, the Monday event will gather views on a disaster risk reduction global framework post 2015 from the perspective of communities.
