Asia Pacific Action Plan 2021-2024 for the Implementation of the Sendai Framework

7 Dec 2021

Enhance the collaboration between regional and national scientific institutions and platforms to strengthen the understanding of short and long-term climate projections and their implications on climate and disaster risks. [...] Establish mechanisms to monitor the implementation and to evaluate effectiveness of the national and local disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation strategies, including through the formulation of monitoring, evaluation and accountability frameworks. [...] Analyse the impact of disasters and risk on graduating LDCs and support the integration of disaster risk reduction in relevant policies and investment; advance resource mobilization for LDCs in the Asia-Pacific region that cannot fund the implementation of the Sendai Framework. [...] Prepare or review and periodically update disaster preparedness and contingency policies, plans and programmes, considering climate change scenarios and their impact on disaster risk, and adjust the approaches in light of the dynamic compounding and cascading nature of disaster risks. [...] Continue enhancing national and local capacity to develop, maintain and institutionalize disaster loss and damage databases, conduct risk assessment and apply risk information for decision-making, develop and implement inclusive national and local disaster risk reduction strategies in coherence with climate, public health security and sustainable development policies and plans, and secure ex-ante.
