risk reduction to make this happen.
UNDRR thematic work on DRR
The interactions between climate change trends, ecosystem fragility, disease
outbreaks, rapid unplanned urbanization, mass displacement and geopolitical
instability, fuelled by the interconnectivity of communications, trade,
financial systems and politics, mean that shocks, stresses, and crises
reverberate globally.

IT PAYS TO INVEST IN DRR

1.5 a day

The number of disaster events is projected to reach 560 a year – or 1.5
disasters a day – by 2030



$1 into $4

In low- and middle-income countries, investing in more resilient infrastructure
yields US $4 in benefit for each $1 invested

$80 billion

Mangrove forests provide more than US $80 billion per year in avoided losses
from coastal flooding

30%

Just 24 hours warning of a coming storm or heat wave can cut the ensuing damage
by 30 percent
