Gran Sasso Science Institute L Aquila 14.07.2017 Disaster risk reduction: from disaster management to disaster risk management
Over 700 thousand people have lost their lives and over 1.4 million have been injured and approximately 23 milion have been made homeless. Between 2008-2012, 144 million people were displaced by disaster many of which exacerbated by climate change. The total economic lost was more than $ 1.3 trillion. Evidence indicates that exposure of persons and assets in all countries has increased faster than vulnerability has decreased, thus generating new risks and a steady rise in disaster related losses, with a significant economic, social, health, cultural and environmental impact in the short, medium and long term especially at the local and community levels.

Setting the scene: overview of the major disaster effects in 2005 2015 Global trends, including population growth, unsustainable urbanisation and poor land management, ecosystem degradation and climate change, have led to an increase in the frequency, intensity and impact of disaster over the last decades. Improvements in disaster risk management have led to substantial reductions in the number of live lost in some countries but millions of people remain affected by natural disasters every year and economic damages incurred continue to increase.

CALRE 2017 Calamità Naturali The Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030 From disaster management to disaster risk management: the goal is to prevent new and reduce existing disaster risks, through an all-of society and all-hazards risk approach across economic, social, and environmental policy areas, with a view to reduce vulnerability and increase resilience. The Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030 is a voluntary instrument providing a new global approach to disaster risk management. Scope and purpose: the framework will apply to the risk of small-scale and largescale, frequent and infrequent, sudden and slow-onset disaster, caused by natural or manmade hazards as well as related environmental, technological and biological hazards and risks. It aims to guide the multi-hazard management of disaster risk in development at all levels as well as within and across al sectors. (Ref. Chart of the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030 UN)
The Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030. Priorities for Action at Global, regional and local levels Priority 1: Understanding disaster risk; Priority 2: Strengthening disaster risk governance to manage disaster risk; Priority 3: Investing in risk reduction for resilience; Priority 4: Enhancing disaster preparedness for effective response, and to «Build Back Better» in recovery, rehabilitation and reconstruction.

The European Committee of the Regions (CoR), European Commission and the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR) seek to accelerate the implementation and monitoring of the Sendai Framework at the European Forum for Disaster Risk Reduction in Istanbul, in order to reduce the impact of natural disasters. The European Committee of the Regions adopted its position unanimously at its 22-23 March Plenary session underlining that disaster resilient development needs to be imbedded into all public.

CALRE 2017 Calamità Naturali The Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030 - Priority 1: Understanding disaster risk Policies and practices for disaster risk management should be based on an understanding of disaster risk in all its dimensions of vulnerability, capacity, exposure of persons and assets hazard characteristics and environment. Such knowledge can be leveraged for the purpose of predisaster risk assessment, for prevention and mitigation and for development and implementation of appropriate preparedness and effective response to disasters.

CALRE 2017 Calamità Naturali Key questions: Risk is complicated, but understanding risk is vital to protection of society and environment. Without proper risk analysis, can appropriate policy decisions be made? In an increasingly litigious society, could governments and officials not have a proper risk assessment methodology? The public purse is not unlimited: budgets are under pressure with many calls upon limited funds: immediate social need or spending money on preparing for a future event?
