ADPC Disaster risk reduction 2017-2023 - ADPC Disaster risk reduction 2017-2022

Asia Disaster Preparedness Center, ADPC, has applied to Sida for funding of 5 933 000 USD (54 million SEK) to carry out the "Building resilience through inclusive and climate-adaptive disaster risk reduction in Asia-Pacific" in Asia and Pacific during the period 2017-2022. The five-year program aims to enhance regional capacity for cooperation on disaster and climate risk management with an overall objective of building resilience of people in the Asia-Pacific region. This will be achieved by building on current good practices and providing technical assistance to select governments, civil society organizations and regional bodies. Key focus areas of the program include: emergency preparedness and humanitarian response management; facilitating the use of risk information and sex-age-disability-disaggregated data by policy makers and disaster managers; integrating disaster and climate change concerns into development policy and programs; promoting inclusion and protection-sensitive approaches in risk reduction and disaster preparedness, promoting gender equality and women leadership for risk resilience; and enhancing the role of the Regional Consultative Committee on Disaster Management (RCC) to support member countries on implementing global frameworks and serving as a conduit for South-South learning, transboundary risk reduction and knowledge sharing. ADPC will implement the intervention together with the Swedish Contingency Agency, MSB, Stockholm Environment Institute –Asia, and the Raul Wallenberg Institute.
