Thematic summary report
The Post-2015 Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction presents an opportunity to make broad-sweeping changes to how governments are further encouraged to manage disaster information during the response and recovery phases, and how they approach post-event reviews.
This report contains guidance on eight recommendations and associated implementation actions through which the Post-2015 Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction may improve national and regional capabilities, including:
- Assess information needs and sharing capabilities.
- Establish standards and protocols.
- Develop systems and invest in infrastructure.
- Work with the mass and social media.
- Build partnerships.
- Establish legal, statutory, and regulatory frameworks.
- Engage citizens.
- Establish SOPs for post-event reviews.
- Make information available to Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) efforts.
