This data strategy spells out how UNDRR, its partners and stakeholders can access, analyse and share data for risk-informed sustainable development, and climate and humanitarian action.

This report documents the assessment of the status of national disaster loss databases in 13 countries and presents lessons to guide the next generation of disaster loss accounting systems (DLAS).

This UNDRR-WMO joint report assesses the current global status of multi-hazard early warning systems (MHEWS) against Target G of the Sendai Framework, collating data officially reported by the Member States with data collected through a WMO survey.

Climate risks are complex and systemic due to non-linear interactions among system components and the need for improved risk governance. This document offers a framework on how to apply comprehensive risk assessment and planning.

This publication is a supplement to the UNFCCC NAP Technical Guidelines and focuses particularly on the opportunities that the National Adaptation Plan (NAP) process provides to national authorities and stakeholders for integrating risk-centred approaches

The purpose of this study was to review selected National Adaptation Plans to better understand how disaster risk management is approached in climate change documents, and if systemic risk issues where impacts cascade across sectors are considered.

The report proposes an approach to assess the level of integration - limited, partial or substantial - of the two fields in DRR and CCA policy documents in sub-Saharan Africa.
