Disaster Risk Reduction is a critical element to ensure that the likelihood of disaster decreases, as well as reducing their impact when they do occur. Disaster Risk Reduction is a joined responsibility shared by governmental agencies, regional organizations, the communities, and individual citizens. Exchanging information between these layers is a prerequisite for successful, comprehensive, and sustainable disaster risk reduction. At the same time ownership and engagement of all stakeholders is important of the adoption of disaster risk reduction strategies.
