Overview

Description

The German Disaster Resilience Strategy defines 49 measures, many of them are not limited to the roles and responsibilities of one specific authority. This applies specially to cross-sectoral issues such as integrated collection and analysis of data, the inclusion of vulnerable groups in the disaster risk management system, or the use and awareness of innovative technologies. This project will focus on such measures and will look at innovative, integrated and inclusive approaches to 

1) Improve the understanding of disasters by consolidating damage and loss data on major events in Germany in the past 20 years through an integrative approach pooling official and open sources as well as participatory contributions. 

2) Enhance inclusive government services by identifying current gaps and defining clear recommendations on how to empower vulnerable groups in the national disaster risk management system. 

3) Facilitate mutual learning/training and exchange of experiences on innovative approaches and technologies through study visits and exchange seminars and among various stakeholders engaged in disaster risk management from civil-society, science, private sector and the media/culture/education sector.
