This document discusses the close links between climate change, disaster risk reduction, and the Hyogo Framework for Action (HFA). It outlines five priorities of the HFA that provide a foundation for both disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation: 1) make reduction of disaster risks a priority, 2) assess disaster risks and enhance early warning, 3) increase education and awareness of safety, 4) reduce underlying risk factors, and 5) strengthen disaster preparedness. Integrating efforts between climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction can produce a "triple win" by limiting climate impacts, supporting adaptation, and reducing poverty. This requires political will, multi-stakeholder participation, and designing projects that address both adaptation and risk reduction.

National plan climate changes resilience for smalls islandsFlorin777
Small islands are unique and largely self-contained ecosystems. Their existence owes much to their existing environmental endowment. Preparation and understanding what sustains islands, and how they will be affected by future climate changes is an important concern.
Two thirds of the countries with the highest disaster losses relative to GDP are small island states – with average annual losses between 1 and 9 percent of GDP. Losses of this magnitude are an enormous burden on a country’s budget and fiscal position, with serious consequences for growth and development prospects.
They therefore represent particularly fertile sites to look at the interplay of resilience, vulnerability and adaptation.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

1. Climate Change &Disaster Risk Reduction A Call from HFA 2005-2016 Shyam Jnavaly@actionaid.org April 15, 2010
2. Climate Change “directly or indirectly to human activity that alters the composition of the global atmosphere and which is in addition to natural climate variability observed over comparable time periods” …. a change in the state of the climate that can be identified ... by changes in the mean and / or the variability of its properties, and that persists for an extended period, typically decades or longer ….
3. Climate Change Adaptation The adjustment in natural or human systems in response to actual or expected climatic stimuli or their effects, which moderates harm or exploits beneficial opportunities. The broader concept of adaptation also applies to non-climatic factors such as soil erosion or surface subsidence. Adaptation can occur in autonomous fashion, for example through market changes, or as a result of intentional adaptation policies and plans. Many disaster risk reduction measures can directly contribute to better adaptation
4. Disaster Risk Reduction “action taken to reduce the risk of disasters and the adverse impacts of natural hazards, through systematic efforts to analyze and manage the causes of disasters, including through avoidance of hazards, reduced social and economic vulnerability to hazards, and improved preparedness for adverse events”.
5. Disaster Risk Reduction The concept and practice of reducing disaster risks through systematic efforts to analyze and manage the causal factors of disasters, including through reduced exposure to hazards, lessened vulnerability of people and property, wise management of land and the environment, and improved preparedness for adverse events. The substantial reduction of disaster losses, in lives and the social, economic and environmental assets of communities and countries. “disaster reduction” is sometimes used, the term “disaster risk reduction” provides a better recognition of the ongoing nature of disaster risks and the ongoing potential to reduce these risks
6. Climate change and disaster risk reduction are closely linked. More extreme weather events in future are likely to increase the number and scale of disasters, while at the same time, the existing methods and tools of disaster risk reduction provide powerful capacities for adaptation to climate change.
7. HFA The Hyogo Framework for Action provides the foundation for the implementation of disaster risk reduction. Agreed at the World Conference on Disaster Reduction in January 2005, in Kobe, Japan, with the support of 168 Governments.
8. Adaptation through disaster risk reduction and the role of the Hyogo Framework “the substantial reduction of losses, in lives and in the social, economic and environmental assets of communities and countries”. “promote the integration of risk reduction associated with existing climate variability and future climate change into strategies for the reduction of disaster risk and adaptation to climate change...”
9. 1: Ensure that disaster risk reduction is a nationaland local priority with a strong institutional basis forimplementation. This need is critical to both adaptation and risk reduction: encouraging a core ministry with a broad mandate including finance, economics or planning, to be responsible for mainstreaming climate change adaptation policies and activities; organizing a national high-level policy dialogue to prepare a national adaptation strategy that links with disaster risk reduction strategies; formalizing collaboration and the coordination of climate-related risk reduction activities through a multi-sector mechanism such as a national platform for disaster risk reduction; and developing mechanisms to actively engage women, communities and local governments in the assessment of vulnerability and impacts and the formulation of local adaptation activities
10. 2: Identify, assess and monitor disaster risks andenhance early warning. Important steps under this priority include: Developing and disseminating high quality information about climate hazardsand their likely future changes; Conducting assessments of vulnerability and specially vulnerable groups; Preparing briefings for policymakers and sector leaders; Reviewing the effectiveness of early warning systems; implementing procedures to ensure warnings reach vulnerable groups; and Undertaking public information programmes to help people understand the risks they face and how to respond to warnings.
11. 3: Use knowledge, innovation and education to builda culture of safety and resilience at all levels. This principle applies equally to adaptation and disaster risk reduction. Specific steps should include Collating and disseminating good practices; Undertaking public information programmes on local and personal actions that contribute to safety and resilience; Publicizing community successes; Training the media on climate related issues; Developing education curricula on climate adaptation and risk reduction; Supporting research programmes on resilience; and Improving mechanisms for knowledge transfer from science to application for risk management in climate-sensitive sectors.
12. 4: Reduce the underlying risk factors This covers the many environmental and societal factors that create or exacerbate the risks from natural hazards. Measures can include: Incorporating climate risk-related considerations in development planning processes and macro-economic projections; Requiring the use of climate risk-related information in city planning, land-use planning, water management, and environmental and natural resource management; Strengthening and maintaining protective works such as coastal wave barriers, river levees, flood ways and flood ponds; Requiring routine assessment and reporting of climate risks in infrastructure projects, building designs, and other engineering practices; Developing risk transfer mechanisms and social safety nets; Supporting programmes for diversification of livelihoods; and Instituting adaptation activities in plans for recovery from specific disasters.
13. 5: Strengthen disaster preparedness for effectiveresponse at all levels. Resilience building and early warning systems contribute to this priority. Other specific actions can include : Revising preparedness plans and contingency plans to account for the projected changes in existing hazards and new hazards not experienced before; Building evacuation mechanisms and shelter facilities; and Developing specific preparedness plans for areas where settlements and livelihoods are under threat of permanent change.
14. How to integrated DRR & CCA Map the institutions, policies and mechanisms already in place for reducing disaster risk and dealing with climate change adaptation. Take stock of the available information on hazards, exposure, vulnerabilities and risk assessments. Convene multi-stakeholder discussions to review information and identify opportunities to harmonies policy and address capacity gaps Initiate capacity development activities to build or strengthen coherent approaches to climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction Design joint project initiatives that address both climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction. Conduct adaptation planning with a multi-sectoral, development-based approach and centralized oversight responsibility
15. Key Messages 1 Measures to reduce vulnerability and disaster risk are proven and are already being applied to adaptation: Tools, capacities and supporting mechanisms for disaster risk reduction have been tested around the world and are available for wider use in climate change adaptation.
16. Key Messages 2 Disaster risk reduction offers a triple win: Implementing disaster risk reduction policies and programmes can limit the impacts of climate-related hazards, directly support adaptation to climate change, and help alleviate poverty.
17. Key Messages 3 Reducing disaster risk requires - and provides opportunities for - political leadership: Political commitment at the highest level is essential to drive action across all sectors and to build institutional linkages between climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction fields.
18. Key Messages 4 Multi-stakeholder participation is a key to durable results: Disasters and climate change affect all of society, and therefore disaster risk reduction and adaptation solutions must involve all sectors and civil society, including the private sector, and community engagement.
