IRP Herald Volume 27 is the knowledge report for IRP events at the World Reconstruction Conference 4 and the Global Platform for Disaster Risk Reduction 2019.

This report considers the role of insurance in restoring local economic activity and reducing the long-term impact of natural disasters in Australia. The analysis looks at the experience of three recent natural disasters: Cyclone Debbie, Tathra bushfires

This document, Guidelines for Assessing the Human Impact of Disasters, has been developed as part of the PDNA guidelines, and similarly follows a people-centred, human-recovery approach.
