Policies and Programmes in DRR

An example of prior work:

Dalberg conducted an evaluation of the UNDRR Secretariat. As such, it assessed the Secretariat's past performance and developed the basis for setting the direction for the future. In particular, the evaluation: Assessed the relevance and success of UNDRR's work in the context of the ISDR system in order to fulfill its given mandate in the past 4 years and provided the input to enable UNDRR to make decisions on its strategy and positioning in the broader ISDR system and the appropriate structure, processes and resources to achieve that strategy.?

Voluntary Commitments

The organization has no registered commitments.

The Sendai Framework Voluntary Commitments (SFVC) online platform allows stakeholders to inform the public about their work on DRR. The SFVC online platform is a useful toolto know who is doing what and where for the implementation of the Sendai Framework, which could foster potential collaboration among stakeholders. All stakeholders (private sector, civil society organizations, academia, media, local governments, etc.) working on DRR can submit their commitments and report on their progress and deliverables.
