Description
The Asian Disaster Preparedness Center was established in 1986, based on the strong belief of Founding Director Colonel Brian Ward that we need to reconsider the ways in which people view disasters, and to do more to avoid losses and damages. After 25 years, the APDC aims to redouble efforts. This side event is a dialogue with partners across the globe to focus and clarify our support by prioritizing work in empowering communities, and in cultivating a culture of safety, building safer cities and adapting to climate change.
