A best practices notebook for disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation: guidance and insights for policy and practice from the CATALYST project

This publication focuses on the transformative approaches and measures that can support Disaster Risk Reduction and Climate Change Adaptation. The best practices paper summarises the key results of the entire CATALYST project from a multi-regional perspective, including South and Southeast Asia, Mediterranean Europe, East and West Africa, and Central America and the Caribbean. In doing so, it focuses on some of the most essential themes: ecosystems-based DRR/CCA; mainstreaming DRR/CCA; urban DRR; drought risk management for agriculture; climate risk insurance; small island developing states, and how the Hyogo Framework for Action should be followed up, as well as how to continue the legacy of the CATALYST project.
