This policy paper outlines the basis of ProAct’s concern regarding the risk of disasters, the principles underpinning their approach to disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation, and the key areas of their work on these subjects.

Climate change and disaster management communities have mainly operated in isolation from each other in the past. ProAct believes that greater co-operation between them would increase the effectiveness of both in reducing people’s vulnerability to rising insecurities. This policy paper responds to the urgent need to achieve this.
