Taking Sendai forward: IOM progress report on disaster risk reduction and resilience 2018

In 2017, IOM elaborated a four-year plan of action to guide the Organization’s disaster risk reduction activities in support of States’ efforts to implement the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction. The IOM Strategic Work Plan on Disaster Risk Reduction and Resilience 2017-2020 was designed to help measure progress against the benchmarks of the Sendai Framework and the UN Plan of Action on Disaster Risk Reduction for Resilience, while seeking to foster a more coherent, all-of-organization approach to reducing risks and strengthening resilience. This report is a first stock-taking of the progress of implementation of the action plan since its launch in 2017.
