摘要 | The role of disasters in building and maintaining the cycle of poverty and undermining development progress is increasingly recognized as a major global challenge. While many recent disasters are related to geophysical events (earthquakes, tsunamis, etc.), approximately 70% are weather related and this proportion is likely to grow as climate change processes increase the variability and intensity of weather events. As a result, cost-effective strategies for reducing disaster risk are central both to meeting development goals and responding to the challenges climate change will present all sectors of society, particularly the poor, women and other vulnerable groups. |
