  1. Disaster Risk Reduction Session 8th Global RCE Conference Nairobi, Kenya

  2. ESD after 2014 • In July 2013 a draft Global Action Programme on ESD (as a follow-up to UN DESD after 2014) was developed through broad consultations. • The Broad consultations were conducted through: • a UNESCO online survey questionnaire in early 2013 covering Member • States, over 500 including United Nations agencies. • 2 regional consultation meetings. • online consultations of the United Nations Interagency Committee for the • DESD, the International Steering Group for the UNESCO World • Conference on ESD in 2014, and the DESD Reference Group and the • Working Group of UNESCO Chairs on ESD. • The DESD Monitoring and Evaluation Expert Group and participants of • the UNESCO Youth Forum were consulted electronically.

  3. Global Action Programme on ESD • The overall goal of the Global Action Programme on ESD is • to generate and scale up action in all levels and areas of • education and learning to accelerate progress towards • sustainable development. • The objectives are: • To reorient education and learning so that everyone has the opportunity to acquire the knowledge, skills, values and attitudes that empower them to contribute to sustainable development; and • To strengthen education and learning in all agendas, programmes and activities that promote sustainable development.

  4. Global Action Programme on ESD The Global Action Programme on ESD focuses on the following priority action areas, which build on successes, challenges and “unfinished business” of UN DESD: 1. Integrate ESD into international and national policies in education and sustainable development. 2. Promote whole-institution approaches to ESD at all levels and in all settings. 3. Strengthen the capacity of educators, trainers and other change agents to become learning facilitators for ESD. 4. Support youth in their role as change agents for sustainable development through ESD. 5. Accelerate the search for sustainable development solutions at the local level through ESD.

  5. According to the Global Action Programme on ESD, the full mobilisation of education and learning for SD calls for enhanced action (multi-stakeholder cooperation including the private sector) at the local level requiring in particular the following: • Local networks that facilitate multi-stakeholder learning for SD are developed, operationalized and enhanced,…., including indigenous communities. • Local authorities and governments enhance their role in providing learning opportunities for SD, including, as appropriate, supporting at the local level, the integration of ESD in formal education, as well as the provision of, and support to, non-formal and informal learning opportunities in SD for all members of the community.

  6. Session Agenda • The Disaster Risk Reduction session will focus on sharing of experiences on real-life situations that RCEs or members of the RCE network have learned from actual disasters and their aftermaths.  The sharing of lessons learned would enable RCEs to improve and strengthen their preparedness and response capabilities.  • How RCEs can work together and come up with effective preparedness and response systems will be discussed.  • RCEs are expected to suggest collaborative action points, especially in light of and contributions to the implementation of the post-2014 Global Action Programme on ESD.

  7. DRR Action Points • Awareness, education, outreach, training and capacity building measures targeting educational institutes (youth-led initiatives), local communities and government officials is of prime importance (through workshops, curriculum interventions, mass media, generation of other resource material, mock drills etc) • Inventory of RCEs already engaged/those interested in DRR highlighting skills, capacities and expertise so as to create a ready-to tap data base of members working on disaster management (template to be created) • Developing learning case studies organized under the three stages: preparedness, response and rehabilitation.
