This page displays local policies and plans on disaster risk, climate adaptation and resilience.

Governance of risk plays a central role in managing disaster risk. Local policies and plans for disaster risk reduction are tailored strategies developed by or for municipal authorities and provincial governments to mitigate and manage the impacts of disasters within their communities. These plans include measures such as conducting local risk assessments, enforcing building codes, creating emergency response teams, and developing public awareness campaigns.

They also involve establishing early warning systems, preparing evacuation routes, and ensuring that local infrastructure can withstand potential hazards. By focusing on the unique risks and vulnerabilities of the area, these local policies aim to enhance community resilience, improve disaster preparedness, and ensure a swift and effective response to emergencies.
