#NoNaturalDisasters and voting in elections for a better DRR

This is NoNaturalDisaster campaign's position paper on considerations when voting for a better disaster risk reduction process. The paper underlines that whether it be in local, national or regional elections, all votes count and can have an impact on the type of disaster response and preparedness a country adopts.

This action, the paper highlights, can ensure the government elected makes risk-aware decisions on planning proposals, budgetary spending on overseas response to disasters or ensuring a more effective emergency communication strategy.
