Outline of the Presentation
The Post 2015 Framework for Disaster Risk
Reduction (HFA2)
• Rationale
• The consultation process and outcomes
www.unisdr.org
• Consultations for HFA2 at the GPDRR
• Next steps
3
Why Post 2015 Framework for DRR?
• The Hyogo Framework for Action 2005-2015 is approaching
its end
• Growing human costs and economic losses due to disasters
• More people and assets are located in areas of high risk
www.unisdr.org
• Rapid urbanization will further increase exposure to disaster
risks
• IPCC Special report: changing climate will change frequency,
intensity and timing of extreme weather and climate events
• UN General Assembly Resolution 66/199 requested
UNISDR to faciliate development of a Post 2015
Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction
4
Developing Post 2015 Framework - Participatory
and Inclusive Approach
• Consultative meetings
 National and local
 Regional (Africa, Asia, Pacific, Arab States, Europe,
Americas, Central Asia and the Caucuses Regional and sub
regional Platforms, Ministerial and other)
 By stakeholder groups (Mayors/local government,
parliamentarians, Media, Private sector, vulnerable groups
etc.)
www.unisdr.org
 Consultations with communities and NGOs
 On-line discussions
 Thematic consultations (economics of disaster risk reduction,
land use planning, science and technology, governance and
transparency, etc)

Other reporting processes/mechanisms
• Findings from the Local Government SelfAssessment of disaster resilience under the
Making Cities Resilient Campaign;
www.unisdr.org
• The HFA2 Advisory Group to the SRSG
• Views expressed in the section ‘Future
outlook’ in 2011-13 cycle of the HFA Monitor

HFA2 Consultation process
Two Phases:
First Phase: from March 2012 to the Global Platform in May 2013
Focus: broad substantive issues for a new framework for disaster
risk reduction
GPDRR: deliberations on HFA2 will consolidate issues and
recommendations made to date and deepen the dialogue
www.unisdr.org
Second phase: from June 2013 to the 3 rd WCDRR in early 2015
Focus: content and format of a draft HFA2

Key issues and observations (1/3)
•
Building on the current HFA
Preserve and reinforce the core elements of the
current HFA
•
Enhanced Understanding of Risk
Reflect an enhanced understanding of risk as
informed by the evidence and findings (GAR, IPCC,
SREX , scientists, practitioners etc. on extensive
risk, climate change etc.)
•
An HFA2 for Local Governments and Citizens
Emphasis on views and capabilities of Local
governments, mayors, community organisations
9
Key issues and observations (2/3)
• Economic Opportunities and Private Sector Investment
Role and diversity of private sector engagement in reducing risk
and building resilience, creating enabling environment
• Stronger Governance and Accountability
Appropriate governance and accountability mechanisms, clear
responsibilities across public and private actors, role and
responsibilities of National Platforms for DRR
www.unisdr.org
• Leverage Benefits of Integrated Approaches
Factoring disaster risk management considerations into urban,
economic, territorial and social development, include clomate
change challenges
10
Key issues and observations (3/3)
• Integrate climate change issues more fully into
the HFA2
Concrete steps to prevent the creation of new risks,
and accept the reduction of greenhouse gases as a
disaster reduction priority
www.unisdr.org
• Advances in Science and Technology
More effective interplay of science, policy and
practice in support of disaster risk reduction provides
an opportunity for collaborative learning and action
• Building Women’s Leadership
Women to assume leadership in promoting disaster
risk reduction locally and nationally.

www.unisdr.org
Engagement of the National
Platforms in HFA 2
• A number of National consultations
conducted by National Platforms
Eg. Alegria, Lebanon, Sri Lanka, Cambodia,
Sweden, Germany
• Take the opportunity at GPDRR for
dialogue
• Identify ways for a stronger role on Phase II
of consultations
13
Phase 2 of consultations on HFA2
– Key elements of HFA2 will be prepared drawing on the
consultations and deliberations at the 4th GPDRR;
– In 2013-2014: consultations based on the key elements will be
sought with countries, IGOs and stakeholders.
– At the regional level, the 5th Pacific Regional Platform on DRM
(July 2013) and 6th AMCDRR (June 2014) will be key forums;
www.unisdr.org
– In early 2015: final draft of the post-HFA framework submitted for
consideration at the 3rd World Conference on DRR in Japan;
– In 2015: UN Secretary-General submits a report on the 3rd World
Conference on DRR (WCDRR) to the UN General Assembly along
with a recommendation for the UN General Assembly to adopt the
HFA2

Remaining period of HFA
www.unisdr.org
Accelerate implementation: urgency for accelerated and scaled-up action
•
Achievements at the national level are translated to the local level: by building
the capacities of local governments and community members to enable
resilience building
•
Close the gaps in policies and legislation which act as hindrance for swift
implementation
•
Multi hazard risk assessments, risk based planning and early warning
systems with connectivity to the community level
•
Accelerate the focus on small-scale high-frequency disasters
•
DRR and CCA are integrated into socio-economic and development sectors,
with greater attention on social equity, gender issues in DRR and other
specifically vulnerable groups.
•
The integration of DRR principles into major infrastructure projects, along with
improved enforcement of relevant legislation such as building codes.
