#UN Office for Disaster Risk Reduction, dedicated to building disaster #resilience and tackling #climatechange through implementation of the Sendai FrameworkThe UNDRR brings governments, partners, and communities together to reduce disaster risk and losses and to ensure a safer, sustainable future.

Core values

- **Reduction in Disaster Mortality**: The Sendai Framework Monitor reports a 49% decline in disaster-related mortality, which significantly improves the quality of life and saves lives[1].
- **Increased National Strategies and Early Warning Systems**: The implementation of national disaster risk reduction strategies and multi-hazard early warning systems in many countries enhances community resilience and preparedness[1].
- **Economic Impact**: Direct economic losses from disasters have been managed to average around 0.3% of global GDP, indicating better economic resilience[1].
- **Global Awareness and Policy Influence**: UNDRR's work has high visibility and influence, with 85% of development actors aware of its relevance to global resilience efforts. This helps in integrating a risk-informed approach across sustainable development policies[4].
- **Community Resilience and Sustainable Development**: The efforts focus on enhancing community resilience, addressing underlying risk drivers, and contributing to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which are crucial for overall societal well-being[1][4].
