National Partnership Agreement on Disaster Risk ReductionMay 19th, 2021
As Australians see the growing potential for natural hazards to trigger devastating disasters, all sectors of society must work together to limit these impacts. In 2015, the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030 was adopted by Australia and other members of the United Nations at the 3rd UN World Conference on Disaster Risk Reduction. Through the Sendai Framework, countries around the world recognise the importance of not only managing disasters but managing disaster risk. The Sendai Framework states that to strengthen resilience, countries must prevent new and reduce existing disaster risk. It outlines four global priorities for action to reduce disaster risk: Understanding disaster risk; strengthening disaster risk governance to manage disaster risk; investing in disaster risk reduction; and enhancing disaster preparedness.
