Community-managed disaster risk reduction - two courses
The global climate system is in a constant state of flux. Changes in climate patterns are now becoming more evident. Drought affected areas are increasing, heavy precipitation is getting more frequent and typhoons and hurricanes are getting more intense. Disasters wipe out the accumulated gains of development efforts.
The CMDRR framework establishes the relationship between disaster and development. It asserts that disasters can be avoided and the risks of hazards can be reduced by increasing individual’s capability and capacity towards survivability and community’s capacity towards readiness. The goal of CMDRR is building resilient communities.
To create a good learning environment, organizers deem it necessary to have at least 8 participants to conduct the course. IIRR reserves the right to cancel the course, one month before its schedule. This will be immediately conveyed to the applicants. Course fees will be refunded in full.
