Disaster Cluster Meeting, November 2007

UN-ISDR/CityNet/WorldBank Regional Workshop • Reducing Vulnerability to Climate Change Impacts and other Natural Disasters in East Asia

Challenges and Issues • Translation of available risk assessment results and risk information into implementable policies and plans • Sustainability of on-going DRR programs and projects • Enhancement technical capability and institutional competencies in DRM • Provision of enabling legal and institutional framework to support and promote DRR

Challenges and Issues • Raising of awareness among constituents • Strengthening of linkages with the business community for Business Continuity Planning • Fund constraints for DRM initiatives • Availability of calamity loan facilities in high-risk areas • Need for strong international institutional cooperation

Conclusion • Contributions of the academe, international institutions, and scientific partners for research collaborations is essential – Applied research and related studies (i.e. Risk Modeling, Climate Analyses) – Mainstreaming risk in planning and macroeconomic-analyses - Researches be readily available and understandable for policy leaders and nontechnical administrators

Programs, projects and policies should be ideally grounded on scientific research

Thank you.
