Managing Disaster Risks for a Resilient Future A Work Plan for the Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery 2016 – 2018

The Work Plan 2016-2018 presents a pathway for the Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery (GFDRR) to scale up efforts to meet the demand of developing countries for enhanced resilience in the face of growing hazards from and exposure to natural disasters and climate change, both well aligned with and supporting the implementation of the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030. Guided by the Work Plan 2015-2017, GFDRR has delivered its $68 million 2015 program, helping countries advance along the Five Pillars of Action – Risk Identification, Risk Reduction, Preparedness, Financial Protection, and Resilient Recovery.1 Throughout its work, GFDRR systematically targets the most disaster-prone countries, enables large-scale investment programs in disaster risk management (DRM), and ensures support for and coordination with partners.
