Covid-19: DRR & Resilience and its Framework
COVID- 19 is alarming us that we have to work on building resilient and safer communities, so that people can cope with or live with “New Normal” and also we have to think of something new and innovative how to live beyond the individual level calling for community based platforms when it comes to disaster risk reductions and resilience.
In that perspective, it is the time for us to look at and review how COVID-19 has impacted and will influence on existing commitments and mechanism of DRR and Resilience and then based on the review, how we need to put ourselves better in place to reflect the “new normal” and what we need to align in implementing the DRR and Resilience plan at different levels. For instance, Sendai Framework 2015’ and Health Emergency and Disaster Risk Management Framework (Health-EDRM) can be considered as an important reference we can refer to.
