Farms in Foya District, Liberia, are devastated by forest fires. Once, communities worked together to prevent outbreaks; now a fire law has been passed to reduce risk.
A workshop in Liberia is currently taking place with the goal of developing a national disaster risk assessment and risk reduction strategy.
In anticipation of the rainy season in Liberia, Rep. Tarponweh has proposed to set up a trust fund for short and long term disaster preparedness, response, recovery and mitigation. This would constitute the first action taken in the spirit of the National Disaster Management Agency Act, which came into force in 2016.
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.
