  • Disaster Risk Reduction in the United Nations
    Disaster Risk Reduction in the United Nations 2009 Roles, mandates and areas of work of key United Nations entities Disaster Risk Reduction in the United Nations 2009 Roles, mandates and areas of work of key United Nations entities Disaster Risk Reduction in the United Nations Introduction The “Hyogo Framework for Action 2005-2015: Building the Resilience for Nations and Communities to Disasters” (HFA) calls upon the United Nations system and other international organizations to undertake concrete tasks within their mandates, priorities and resources. The HFA encourages all organizations to incorporate disaster risk considerations systematically in their own strategies, programmes, advocacy, budgets and internal organization and to participate in International Strategy for Disaster Reduction (ISDR) initiatives. It emphasises strengthening of the United Nations system to assist disaster-prone developing countries with disaster risk reduction initiatives and to support States’ own efforts with technical assistance and capacity development. Four years on from the World Conference on Disaster Reduction in Kobe, Japan, and with the mid-term review of the Hyogo Framework for Action approaching in 2010, it is timely to take a closer look to what extent the existing mandates and policies of the United Nations entities align with the HFA and what stage the United Nations has reached in mainstreaming disaster risk reduction (often referred to as DRR) into its work. While this compilation is not exhaustive, it shows an impressive portfolio of services and programmes of the United Nations and the World Bank in support of disaster risk reduction. It brings together the core set of ISDR system partners, the Inter-Agency Group, also listing disaster risk reduction networks and national counterparts, responsible for various areas of work at the country level.

  • Emergency Management: Preparedness and Resiliency
    Emergency Management: Preparedness and Resiliency The United States experienced a proliferation of catastrophic events last year. These included record rainfalls with significant flooding, widespread tornadoes, massive wildfires and major hurricanes. The magnitude and financial impact of these and other catastrophic events are constant reminders of the need for disaster preparedness across all facets of county government. Investments in resilience and preparedness for natural hazards strengthen the places we live, learn, work and come together at communities. Long-term physical infrastructure resilience requires upfront capital investments to realize future savings in the form of reduced losses, lower insurance costs and enhanced market value. EY assists governmental, nonprofit and corporate entities with emergency preparedness, crisis response and disaster recovery needs. We combine our experience and diverse backgrounds in emergency management with our financial and accounting acumen to help our clients become more operationally and financial resilient. We want to stimulate more aspirational conversations about the future, leading communities to bigger, more ambitious conclusions which lead to action. Managing Disasters Counties should comprehensively assess their resilience to a variety of disasters long before a natural or man-made disaster strikes. Three ways to do this are by determining the county’s value chain with regard to disaster response, analyzing its enterprise resilience to disaster and assessing the interdependency needs
