Urgent action is required to better understand and more effectively manage drought risk to reduce the devastating toll on human lives and livelihoods, and ecosystems.

Official high-level launch of the Global Assessment Report for Disaster Risk Reduction Special Report on Drought 2021 (GAR SRD2021)

Droughts have deep, widespread and underestimated impacts on societies, ecosystems, and economies. They incur costs that are borne disproportionately by the most vulnerable people.   As we move towards a 2˚C warmer world, urgent action is required to better understand and more effectively manage drought risk to reduce the devastating toll on human lives and livelihoods, and ecosystems.

The GAR Special Report on Drought 2021 explores the systemic nature of drought and its impacts on achievement of the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction, the SDGs and human and ecosystems health and wellbeing.

The GAR Special Report on Drought 2021 will be launched on 17 June 2021, the World Day for Combating Desertification and Drought in conjunction with the UN Convention to Combat Desertification.

Early Warning; Journey To Comprehensive Coverage Far From Complete

Despite strides made in enhancing multi-hazard early warning systems, the journey to comprehensive coverage is far from complete, with half of the world’s countries still lacking adequate systems. A recent report by the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNDRR) and the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) sheds light on this.

Unequal access to health services increases exposure to disaster risk.

On International Day for Disaster Risk Reduction, see how from the Solomon Islands to Kiribati we are working with WHO, the GEF and ministries of health across the Pacific to move from risk to resilience to break the cycle.

It was a Great Honor of meeting Dr. Mrutyunjay Mohapatra Sir, Director General of India Meteorological Department Govt of India who is affectionately known as the ‘cyclone man of India’ for having accurately predicted the path of ferocious cyclonic storm Phailin that hit the coast of Orissa. Accurate prediction and timely action by local authorities and people saved tens of thousands of lives and it was greatly appreciated by national and international agencies. As head of the cyclone division in the Indian Meteorological Department, New Delhi, Mohapatra has seen over forty cyclones. “My responsibility is to motivate colleagues and try to minimize loss of life and property.” Dr. Mrutyunjay Mohapatra. #IMD #cycloneman #IMDwork #suport #stand #dedicated #devoted #countryfirst #reducedisaster #lessdamage #undrr #india #indian (at Delhi, India) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cn3DH6SvY60/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Help communities to engage in action that both reduces risk and readies us for the future. 

We invite partners including national, regional and local governments, international organizations, the UN System, non-governmental organizations, and all relevant stakeholders to contribute to building a culture of early warning and early action and to raise awareness on tsunami preparedness. 

The concept is to engage citizens, raising awareness of tsunami and coastal risk, tailoring the action to the local context. The activity could be a organising a drill, fun run or walk of your tsunami and coastal risk evacuation route, or if you have an event, drill or activity, we warmly invite you to connect it to the #gettohighground.
