Mirror.co.uk is the online edition of The Mirror, one of Britain’s most trusted news brands.
Since 1903 we have brought words and pictures from the most important world events to millions of readers both in print and, more recently, online.
We are committed to reporting the news accurately and with energy and vigour.
The Mirror is known for its strong social conscience. More than a century ago we led the campaign for more lifeboats on ships after the deaths of the poorest on board the Titanic. We campaigned against the ivory trade and seal clubbing and helped create the World Wildlife Fund. Our battle alongside families of the 96 victims of the Hillsborough Disaster changed the course of history. More recently we waged a campaign to save the British steel industry and explored the current homelessness crisis. A change in the law on organ donation, which could save 500 lives every year, is due to come into force in 2020 thanks to our long-running campaign. This has been a huge victory for the Mirror.
The Sendai Framework Voluntary Commitments (SFVC) online platform allows stakeholders to inform the public about their work on DRR. The SFVC online platform is a useful toolto know who is doing what and where for the implementation of the Sendai Framework, which could foster potential collaboration among stakeholders. All stakeholders (private sector, civil society organizations, academia, media, local governments, etc.) working on DRR can submit their commitments and report on their progress and deliverables.
