Disaster risk management capacity

The indicator for the Disaster Risk Reduction activity in the country comes from the score of Hyogo Framework for Action self-assessment reports of the countries. The Hyogo Framework for Action covers the following topics: (i) ensure that disaster risk reduction is a national and a local priority with a strong institutional basis for implementation; (ii) identify, assess and monitor disaster risks and enhance early warning; (iii) use knowledge, innovation and education to build a culture of safety and resilience at all levels; (iv) reduce the underlying risk factors; and (v) strengthen disaster preparedness for effective response at all levels.
Self-evaluation has a risk of being perceived as a process of presenting inflated grades and being unreliable.
