Sendai FrameworkFrom managing disaster to managing risk
• Outcome: Substantial reduction of disaster risk and losses in lives, livelihoods and health and in the economic, physical, social, cultural and environmental assets of persons, businesses, communities and countries …
• Goal: Prevent creation of new risk, Reduce exisitng risk and Strengthen resilience
• Scope: Adds slow-onset, small-scale, biological and man-made hazards
Increases the scope of action in recovery, and reconstruction to Build Back Better
