The Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030: Reflections and insights from the global engineering community

This paper presents the results of a consultation with over 200 engineering practitioners and experts from across the globe to elicit the views from the global engineering community, and will feed into the formal Midterm Review process of the Sendai Framework. 

Engineers play a crucial role in developing and managing the built environment, they are key implementers of disaster risk reduction, disaster risk management, and resilience, as they develop the required guidance and standards for projects. Therefore, their perspective serves as a valuable contribution to the Midterm Review of the Sendai Framework.
