A new study provides one of the most comprehensive assessments yet of how humanity is being impacted by the simultaneous occurrence of multiple climate change hazards. With few exceptions, climate hazards due to greenhouse gas emissions have been studied individually, and this research reveals that concurrent disasters pose a much larger threat than thought.
Voluntary Commitments
The organization has no registered 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.
