Christian NjokuHi every one, conflict and disaster has redirected the attention of all concerned human beings living in the only planet of ours, but the most annoying challenge is the man made and built up situations, while concerted efforts are made to curb the menace, disgruntled and misguided elements continue with such inhuman and atrocious activity that is forbidden before God and man, discussion must be followed by action to seeing to effective eradication of this impending global nightmare, I'm personally troubled that church, were God is worshiped has turn to a place were bombs are traded, what else do we do, than to pass a law of capital punishment against such evil perpetrators .September 2012

Carlos PeláezUn gusto saludarlos, vivo en Colombia, soy estudiante de Maestría en Gestión de Riesgos y me parece muy interesante conversar sobre un marco de acción que contemple alternativas diferentes a una respuesta asistencialista al desastre, convocando a la mutua solidaridad previa al evento, de tal manera que existan comunidades mejor preparadas y con una base económica para soportar el impacto inicial y continuar el proceso de recuperación.September 2012

ADMINISTRACIÓN DE DESASTRES, HE TENIDO LA POSIBILIDAD DE INSTALAR MESAS DE COMUNITARIAS DE PREVENCIÓN Y GESTIÓN DE RIESGO, PARTICULARMENTE ESTOY MUY SATISFECHA POR PODER PARTICIPAR EN ESTE DIALOGO RRD DEBIDO QUE ES DE SUMA IMPORTANCIA UNIR IDEAS FACTIBLES PARA LA MITIGACIÓN DE LOS RIESGO, ABORDANDO A LAS COMUNIDADES CON LA INSERCIÓN DE LA GESTIÓN DE RIESGOS IMPULSANDO ASÍ UN DESARROLLO SOSTENIBLE PARA LAS MISMA. YA QUE CONSIDERO QUE LAS COMUNIDADES AL SER CAPACITADAS ESTAS PODRÁN RESPONDER SATISFACTORIAMENTE ANTE CUALQUIER SITUACIÓN O EVENTUALIDAD DE RIESGO.September 2012

Jonathan AbrahamsAs the focal point for disaster risk management for health at WHO, I would like to enter this discussion with two main points, which have been developed in consultation with colleagues. First, taking the liberty of speaking on behalf of colleagues in health and other sectors working towards improving the health of communities at risk of emergencies and disasters (is that not all of us?), may we propose that people`s health should feature as an explicit outcome of the post-HFA framework. Actions from all sectors to make communities safer from all hazards contributes to saving lives, reducing deaths, injuries, illnesses and disability, protecting hospitals and other infrastructure and strengthening the resilience of communities and health systems. Given the impact of hazards on the health of communities worldwide, the health imperative for a post-HFA framework is clear, and therefore, we propose that health outcomes and actions to reduce health risks should be made very prominent in aSeptember 2012
