CAMPAIGN

#DEALING WITH DISASTERS

Strengthening the role of civil society in coordinating disaster risk reduction and post-emergency interventions.

For the #DealingWithDisasters campaign, we progressively unpack the stakes of disaster risk reduction to a broader audience in order to push forward this important topic for civil society. In the last 20 years, disasters affected over 4 billion people. From the Covid-19 pandemic to climate change, calamities are taking new shapes and sizes, infiltrating every dimension of society. How can we create a whole-of-society approach to disaster risk reduction? Right through this vortex of intersecting crises, a new toolkit and interactive website by Forus, the Global Network of Civil Society Organizations for Disaster Reduction (GNDR), Save the Children Switzerland and Inventing Futures, with the support of Fondation de France, looks at how civil society organisations coordinate disaster risk reduction and post-emergency interventions. Read articles, share infographics and listen to the stories of civil society organisations building resilient communities.

Space for Us

The Disaster Risk Reduction Toolkit is intended to strengthen the ability of National Civil Society Organisations Platforms in supporting their member organisations. It is also relevant to those more experienced in disaster risk reduction as well as to a more general audience. The toolkit is available both as a micro-site and as downloadable PDFs in English, French and Spanish.
