Background
 UN 1997 reform agenda stressed challenges and new
developments – including growing levels of disaster risk.
 Since late 1990s a number of international commitments
to DRR made including: (NB shift in focus away from
seeing disasters as purely humanitarian)
 UN Millennium Declaration
 General Assembly (since 2004)
 Johannesburg Programme of Implementation
 Bali Action Plan
 Hyogo Framework for Action

Background
 Growing awareness of the potential impact of climate
change has focused increasing attention and
awareness on how existing climate risk is being
managed.
 As the impact of climate change is increasingly felt so
too will the scale and unpredictability of climatic
hazards & related disasters.

Background
 Hyogo Framework for Action includes specific
commitments to integrating DRR:
•
through the Resident Coordinator system and the United
Nations Country Teams; and

into development assistance frameworks, such as the

Background
 2007 UNSG’s Policy Committee made specific
recommendation on DRR and climate change agreeing on
three decisions centred on:
 The importance of raising greater, political
attention/advocacy on benefits of DRR & consequences
of not investing in it;
 To commit the UN to enhance links between DRR and
climate change adaptation agendas; and
 To promote the better mainstreaming of DRR and the
HFA into the UN system’s policies and practices.
 UN Development Group (UNDG) Task-team established
under the UNDG Programming Group.

Integrating DRR into
CCA/UNDAF
 Integrating DRR in CCA and UNDAF process is...
 an important stepping stone towards integrating
DRR into national level development
 an important sign of the UNCTs political
commitment for risk reduction
 an opportunity to increase likely success of
country programmes in risk prone countries.
 In support of this process UNDG has developed a
guidance note for UNCTs.

Purpose of the Guidance Note
 An annex to the core CCA/UNDAF guide.
 Intended to support UNCTs embarking on CCA/UNDAF
in countries where disaster risk is an important challenge
development.
 Targeted at UN but also of interest to other stakeholders
providing helpful guidance on integrating DRR into
broader development analysis, strategic planning and
programming.
 Close relationship between DRR & climate change
adaptation means also of use when working on climate
change issues.

The Guidance Note
Identifies critical steps for integrating DRR into the
analytical and strategic planning process to help UNCTs
to:
Analyse disaster risk
Review how disaster risk interacts with development
Examine national capacities and risk reduction options
Identify priorities for DRR intervention
Agree on the most appropriate areas for UNCT support in
DRR
Include DRR as an integral part of UNDAF M&E

Examples of DRR in work of
UNCT
Disaster risk reduction has been integrated into the work of the UNCT in a
range different ways e.g.

Integrating DRR into the full process of UNDAF development
(analysis, strategic planning/outcome formulation) e.g. Indonesia

Joint UNCT reviews of the UNDAF e.g. Cape Verde

Making DRR a major theme of an UNDAF review or evaluation e.g.
Turkey

Joint UN Programming for DRR e.g. Pakistan & Mozambique.
