OIEWG on Indicators and Terminology Related to DRR
The open-ended intergovernmental
expert working (OIEWG) group on
indicators and terminology relating to
disaster risk reduction (A/71/644) was
established by the UNGA in it’s
A/RES/69/284 and endorsed by the
UNGA in A/RES/71/276.
The report presents recommended
indicators to monitor the global targets of
the Sendai Framework, the follow-up to
and operationalization of the indicators
and recommended terminology relating to
disaster risk reduction.

Examples of Key Terminology Endorsed in A/RES/71/276
• A serious disruption of the functioning of a community or a society at any scale due to
hazardous events interacting with conditions of exposure, vulnerability and capacity,
leading to one or more of the following: human, material, economic and environmental
losses and impacts.
Disaster
• The potential loss of life, injury, or destroyed or damaged assets which could occur
to a system, society or a community in a specific period of time, determined
probabilistically as a function of hazard, exposure, vulnerability and capacity.
Disaster
Risk
• The situation of people, infrastructure, housing, production capacities and other
tangible human assets located in hazard-prone areas.
Exposure
• A process, phenomenon or human activity that may cause loss of life, injury or
other health impacts, property damage, social and economic disruption or
environmental degradation.
Hazard
• The lessening or minimizing of the adverse impacts of a hazardous event.
Mitigation

Examples of Key Terminology Endorsed in A/RES/71/276
• Activities and measures to avoid existing and new disaster risks.
Prevention
• The ability of a system, community or society exposed to hazards to resist, absorb,
accommodate, adapt to, transform and recover from the effects of a hazard in a
timely and efficient manner, including through the preservation and restoration of its
essential basic structures and functions through risk management.
Resilience
• Processes or conditions, often development-related, that influence the level of
disaster risk by increasing levels of exposure and vulnerability or reducing
capacity.
Underlying
Disaster Risk
Drivers
• The conditions determined by physical, social, economic and environmental factors
or processes which increase the susceptibility of an individual, a community, assets
or systems to the impacts of hazards.

Custom and Regional Targets and Indicators
Nationally identified targets and indicators
that are especially related to the four
priorities of the Sendai Framework
Member States can measure their
progress by creating indicators or
selecting from a proposed menu, as
relevant to their own context
These targets and indicators provide a
mechanism for monitoring the national
strategies for disaster risk reduction
Dedicated indicators for also available for
local governments to help assess their
progress on DRR
Support regional IGOs to coordinate
regional reporting of the Sendai
framework implementation in their
respective regions;
Provide a common platform for
monitoring frameworks of regional DRR
strategies;
Enable regional entities to showcase
their success in DRR in alignment with
other global agendas especially in
regional events such as sustainable
development forums, climate outlook
forums and DRR platforms.
