The National Action Plan for Disaster Risk Management (DRM NAP) provides a roadmap of how the Cook Islands will go about implementing the strategy of “establishing a coordinated and effective national disaster risk reduction and disaster management system for all hazards” as articulated under Goal 6 of the National Sustainable Development Plan 2007 – 2010. The NSDP is itself a key planning document linked to Te Kaveinga Nui – Living the Cook Islands Vision. A 2020 Challenge.

This document outlines the vision for recovery and revitalization in Fukushima Prefecture after the Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami.

The aim of this document is to support local governments to develop a community-specific disaster management system, including governance arrangements, a Local Disaster Management Plan and supporting plans, using the comprehensive approach to disaster management.
