Disability Inclusive DRR :
Disability Inclusive Disaster Risk Reduction Strategy toward the Third World
Conference on DRR in 2015
The Third United Nations World Conference on Disaster Risk Reduction (3WCDRR) will be held from 14 to 18 March 2015 in Sendai City, Miyagi Prefecture Japan. The First Conference was held in Yokohama and the Second Conference was held in Kobe. During the Second Conference the Hyogo Framework for Action 2005-2015: Building the Resilience of Nations and Communities to Disasters (HFA) was adopted. The Third WCRR will assess and review the implementation of the HFA and adopt a post-2015 framework for disaster risk reduction.
Related to the Third Conference, the Conference titled “Asia-Pacific Meeting on Disability-inclusive Disaster Risk Reduction: Changing Mindsets through Knowledge” was held on 22-23 April 2014 in Sendai Japan, organized by the ESCAP (United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific), RI (Rehabilitation International) and Japan Foundation and adopted the Sendai Statement to Promote Disability-inclusive Disaster Risk Reduction for Resilient, Inclusive and Equitable Societies in Asia and the Pacific.
With the above statement we focus on the Third WCDRR including its preparatory process and outcome document such as HFA2 from the perspective of disability and provide the related information while promoting disability-inclusive DRR strategy.
