Hyogo Framework Evaluation

The Hyogo Framework set forth 5 priorities related to disaster preparedness and risk reduction. 160 countries agreed to implement the plan, including the DMA member countries. The five main priorities were identified as:

1.    Making disaster risk reduction a priority
2.    Improving risk information and early warning
3.    Building a culture of safety and resilience
4.    Strengthening preparedness for response
5.    Reducing the risks in key sectors

Our goal with this survey is to assess the progress of DMA member countries in regards to these five priorities. This is to ensure that gaps are identified for future strategic plans.
