UNDP and UNDRR recently conducted a mapping exercise of early warning system stakeholders across Central Asia to help support a transformational shift in how systems are perceived and integrated into broader resilience-building efforts.

The proactive disaster risk management strategies employed by the Kyrgyz Republic serve as a valuable model for other nations with similar challenges.

This initiative involves strengthening national early warning capabilities, linking systems to reach scale, and sustainable financing.

The report reflects the outcomes of a 2.5-day Regional Lessons Learned Workshop in Almaty, Kazakhstan, held from 19-21 July 2023 on disaster risk reduction in relation to women and children.

This seismic risk profile of Kyrgyzstan, produced by the Global Earthquake Model (GEM) Foundation summarizes key metrics of seismic risk, allowing stakeholders in risk management to get an overview of the risk in the country.

This note outlines the “Strengthening Financial Resilience and Accelerating Risk Reduction in Central Asia” Program's work in addressing the challenges in disaster risk management for Central Asian governments.

This assessment aims at the delivery of a probabilistic risk assessment of floods and earthquakes, as well as assessment of landslide susceptibility and selected land-slide scenarios, and their impact on multiple asset types.

This note describes the role of the World Bank's SFRARR Program in resilience building in Central Asia through quantifying disaster risks, exposure mapping, and establishing fundamental awareness and capacities around disaster risk management and finance.
