  1. The Hyogo Framework for Action 2005-2015:Building the Resilience of Nations and Communities to Disasters United Nations International Strategyfor Disaster Reduction (UN/ISDR) www.unisdr.org

  2. The road to the Hyogo Framework for Action • 1989: IDNDR 1990-1999– promotion of disaster reduction, technical and scientific buy-in • 1994: Yokohama Strategy and Plan of Action– Mid-review IDNDR, first blueprint for disaster reduction policy guidance (social & community orientation) • 2000: International Strategy for Disaster Reduction (ISDR)- increased public commitment and linkage to sustainable development, enlarged networking and partnerships. Mechanisms: IATF/DR, ISDR secretariat, UN Trust Fund • 2002: Johannesburg Plan of Implementation- WSSDIncludes a new section on “An integrated, multi-hazard, inclusive approach to address vulnerability, risk assessment and disaster management…” • 2005: WCDR - Hyogo Framework for Action 2005-2015Building the Resilience of Nations and Communities to Disasters

  3. Hyogo Framework for Action 2005-2015: • Defines: • Strategic goals • Priorities for Action • Implementation and follow-up • Integrates disaster risk reduction into policies, plans and programmes of sustainable development and poverty reduction • Recognizes risk reduction as both a humanitarian and development issue – in the context of sustainable development • Focus on national implementation, with bi-lateral, multi-lateral, regional and international cooperation.

  4. The strategic goals towards mainstreaming ofdisaster risk reduction into development • DRR integrated into sustainable development policies and programmes; • Strengthened institutional mechanisms to build capacities for resilience to hazards; • DRR as part of preparedness, relief and recovery

  5. SUMMARY of the Hyogo Framework for Action 2005-2015: Building the Resilience of Nations and Communities to Disasters (HFA)

  6. ISDR system - in support of the implementation of the Hyogo Framework: A network of networks Nations and communities Responsible for national strategies and programmes, baselines studies, reporting… National Platforms, Government agencies, local authorities, NGOs, technical organisations, private sector , media… Governance UN General Assembly, ECOSOC Global coordination Supporting mechanisms Global Platform for DRR and subsidiary bodies USG Humanitarian Affairs Management Oversight Board ISDR secretariat Trust Fund for DRR ISDR regional and thematic platforms International and regional org. UN Country Teams, Red Cross/ Red Crescent societies WB Country offices Management, oversight, programme guidance, support, joint work programme, monitoring Support and technical advice to agencies, authorities, institutions and organizations

  7. Role of UN/ISDR secretariat - focus • Coordination • Building the Enabling environment: • Platforms - • Global • Regional • National • Thematic • Joint planning • Strategic information • Providing evidence base and policy advice on disaster risk reduction: • Progress reporting • Cost-benefit study • Climate change & DRR • Tools • Advocating and producing information tools: • PreventionWeb • Communication strategy • Resource mobilization

  8. Progress on the Implementation of the Hyogo Framework for Action

  9. Priority areas for action - Means to reduce disaster risk Ensuring that DRR is a national and local priority with a strong institutional basis for implementation • Political momentum at the national and regional level in all regions • Large scale disasters as catalysts for new institutional arrangements and legislation • Focus on disaster preparedness and response. Low involvement of development sectors • Difficulties in implementation

  10. Identify, assess and monitor disaster risks and enhance early warning • Growing involvement in compiling national hazard, risk and loss information • Information not yet mainstreamed into planning and decision making • Major advances in early warning • Difficulties in linking warning to response and national systems to local capacities

  11. Use knowledge, innovation and education to build a culture of safety and resilience at all levels • Important progress in introducing disaster reduction into the school curricula in all regions • Public awareness programmes • Information portals • Focused principally on preparedness and response

  12. Reducing underlying risk factors • Enhancements to building codes and planning standards • Incorporation of disaster reduction into poverty and development strategies • Limited progress in hazard mitigation and vulnerability reduction • Low engagement of private sector; civil society ; financial sector (risk transfer) • Lack of integration of disaster reduction and adaptation to climate change strategies

  13. Strengthen disaster preparedness for an effective response • Widespread progress in improving mechanisms for preparedness and response • Strengthening of capacities of both local authorities and communities • Effective disaster preparedness has to take root at local level

  14. Supporting country efforts • The need for action is more urgent than ever - growing risk and slow progress in implementing the Hyogo Framework for Action • Support to the achievement of a target number of national platforms for disaster risk reduction is needed • Investment in risk reduction needs to be substantially increased • Countries need to quickly establish systems to monitor and report on their risk profiles and on the implementation of the Hyogo Framework • The private sector should be engaged

  15. Progress in Resource Mobilization for DRR • Increased commitment and resources – World Bank, regional and other development banks (AsDB, AfDB, CDB, CAF, BCIE, IADB…), European Commission, G8, and bilateral donors • Multilateral: “Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery” in support of HFA implementation • Bilateral: Launch of the UK-DFID Policy: 10% of funds spent on disaster relief would be invested in initiatives to reduce the impact of disasters • Review of ISDR Trust Fund: potential role in support of • ISDR system

  16. Global Trends Economic loss, mortality and number of disasters is increasing

  17. Extensive Risk • Current progress may reduce mortality risk but not loss of livelihoods assets, housing and local infrastructure, threaten the achievement of MDGs and lead to new hotspots. • Challenges include: • - Local level disaster risk reduction has to include risk sensitive planning and building, vulnerability reduction and environmental measures to reduce climatic hazards • - Depends on decentralization of authority and resources to the local level

  18. Mainstreaming DRR within APEC mechanisms • Fostering a multi-stakeholder dialogue • Planning and Investment / Stimulate DRR activities in production sectors • Develop communication and dissemination mechanisms for disaster risk information and early warning • Establishment of risk indicators • Financial/economic instruments: create opportunities for private-sector involvement in DRR / Promote the establishment of PPP • Local level disaster risk reduction • Disaster recovery: develop a recovery planning process that incorporates DRR
