Free Thought Leadership Course-Synergizing Disaster Risk Reduction & Climate Change Adaptation
Free Thought Leadership Course – Synergizing Disaster Risk Reduction and Climate Change Adaptation
Introduction
Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) and Climate Change Adaptation (CCA) share common goals of risk and vulnerability reduction, making their integration vital. However, these fields have often evolved independently, leading to suboptimal resource utilization. Synergy between them, however, holds great potential. Global initiatives like the Paris Agreement, Sendai Framework, and Sustainable Development Goals promote alignment between DRR and CCA for sustainable development.
Upon completing this course, participants will:
- Understand the synergies between DRR and CCA.
- Define integration between DRR and CCA.
- Identify best practices for DRR-CCA integration.
- Promote attitudinal and behavioral changes toward integration.
