Association of Directors of Environment, Economy, Planning and Transport
Mission
The Association of Directors of Environment, Economy, Planning and Transport (ADEPT) brings together directors in the UK from county, unitary and metropolitan authorities, along with Local Enterprise Partnerships. ADEPT looks after roads and transport, the environment, the local economy and wellbeing, alongside future plans for different areas.
ADEPT is a membership based, voluntary organisation with members across the UK. Its primary role is to take the lead in transforming local authorities. It represents members' interests by proactively engaging central Government on emerging policy and issues, and promoting initiatives aimed at influencing Government policy. ADEPT achieves this by developing best practices and by responding to EU and UK Government initiatives and consultations.
Voluntary Commitments
The Sendai Framework Voluntary Commitments (SFVC) online platform allows stakeholders to inform the public about their work on DRR. The SFVC online platform is a useful toolto know who is doing what and where for the implementation of the Sendai Framework, which could foster potential collaboration among stakeholders. All stakeholders (private sector, civil society organizations, academia, media, local governments, etc.) working on DRR can submit their commitments and report on their progress and deliverables.
