Secretariat of the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction
( UNDRR )

UNDRR is mandated to serve as the focal point in the UN system for the coordination of disaster reduction and to ensure synergy among activities. It supports the implementation of the Hyogo Framework for Action 2005-2015: Building the Resilience of Nations and Communities to Disasters and is facilitating the development of a post-2015 framework for disaster risk reduction. UNDRR is at the heart of a global partnership to build a world in which nations and communities are resilient to the risks of disasters and climate change, enabling them to develop and prosper sustainably.
