On the occasion of the International Day for disaster risk reduction(DRD), DG DEVCO, together with Wetlands international and PfR will hold an event to present the programme “Up-scaling community resilience through ecosystem-based disaster risk reduction” financed by DG DEVCO and led by UN Environment. Overall objective of the three years (2019-2021) project is to upscale Eco-DRR approaches into practice and policy making for building community resilience to water induced disaster risk.
