Summary
The present report contains a summary of the findings and recommendations of the midterm review of the implementation of the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015–2030. In examining progress made and challenges experienced since 2015 in realizing the expected outcome – the substantial reduction of disaster risk and losses – and goal – prevent new and reduce existing disaster risk, the midterm review explores efforts to integrate risk reduction into decision-making, investment and behaviour that spanned sectors, disciplines, geographies and scales so as to prompt re-examination and redress of our relationship with risk.
The findings and recommendations are the result of inclusive, government-led and multi-stakeholder consultations and review, consistent with the guiding principles of the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015–2030 as an “all-of- society” and “all-of-State institutions”1 undertaking.
The United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction expresses its appreciation to all Member States and non-State stakeholders whose genuine interest in and commitment to the process informed the findings and recommendations of the report. Special gratitude goes to the 75 Member States which conducted national consultations and review and the 25 organizations, funds and programmes of the United Nations system, the 26 constituencies associated with the Stakeholder Engagement Mechanism of the Office and numerous other major groups, organizations and individuals that provided contributions.
