Connecting the Dots on Multi-Hazard Risk Management

When a country is faced with multiple hazards from different sources, what really counts is how societies respond, recover, learn from events and address them the next time. In this UR22 technical session, governments from the Caribbean, Central America, Africa, and Southeast Asia, shared lessons, best practices and use-cases on multi hazard risk across sectors, governance levels, and regions.

“Communities in different parts of the world, when faced with the same problem, respond differently. That is because of the way societies are formed, and it determines how they respond to actual events.”
