31. WORLD CONFERENCE ON DRR
1990s International Decade for Natural Disaster Reduction,
IDNDR
i. Yokohama in 1994
ii. Kobe, Hyogo in 2005
iii.Sendai in 2015

32. SENDAI FRAMEWORK FOR DISASTER RISK REDUCTION
The Sendai framework is a 15-year, voluntary, non-binding
agreement
It recognizes that the state has the primary role to reduce
disaster risk
 But that responsibility should be shared with other
stakeholders
 Including local government, the private sector and other
stakeholders.

33. THE FOUR PRIORITIES FOR ACTION
Priority 4. Enhancing disaster preparedness for effective response
and to “Build Back Better” in recovery, rehabilitation and
reconstruction
Priority 1. Understanding disaster risk
Dimensions of vulnerability, capacity, exposure of persons and
assets, hazard characteristics and the environment.
Priority 2.Strengthening disaster risk governance to manage disaster risk
Disaster risk governance at the national, regional and global levels
Priority 3. Investing in disaster risk reduction for resilience
Public and private investment through structural and non-
structural

34. THE SEVEN GLOBAL TARGETS
(e) Substantially increase the number of
countries with national and local disaster risk
reduction strategies by 2020.
(f) Substantially enhance international
cooperation to developing countries
(g) Substantially increase the availability of and
access to multi-hazard early warning systems
and disaster risk information and assessments
to the people by 2030.
(a) Substantially reduce global disaster
mortality by 2030
(b) Substantially reduce the number of
affected people globally by 2030
(c) Reduce direct disaster economic loss in
relation to global (GDP)
(d) Substantially reduce disaster damage to
critical infrastructure and disruption of basic
services, among them health and
educational facilities
DECREASE INCREASE

35. National Disaster Management Plan (NDMP), 2016
Aligned with Sendai Framework
 National Disaster Management Act, 2005
 Provided the legal basis for disaster management.
CURRENT DEVELOPMENT - DISASTER MANAGEMENT
 National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA)
 Coordinates activities of disaster management.
National Policy on Disaster Management (NPDM), 2009
Institutional mechanisms.

36. MAJOR SALIENT FEATURES – NDMP
2016
 NDMP aims to make India disaster resilient and significantly reduce the loss of lives
and assets.
 Based on the four priority themes of the Sendai Framework
 NDMP covers all phases of disaster management: prevention, mitigation, response and
recovery.
 The plan also spells out the roles and responsibilities of all levels of
Government right up to Panchayat and Urban Local Body level in a
matrix format.
It also identifies major activities such as
early warning, information dissemination, medical care, fuel,
transportation, search and rescue, evacuation, etc. to serve as a
checklist for agencies responding to a disaster.
It also provides a generalized framework for recovery and
offers flexibility to assess a situation and Build Back Better.
