2. HYOGO

The Hyogo framework is a global blueprint for disaster risk reduction efforts during the next decade.

environmental assets of communities and countries. The framework offers guiding principle,
priorities for action and practical means for achieving disaster resilience for vulnerable communities.

institutional basis for implementation
o Identify, asses an monitor disaster risks and enhancing early warning
o Use knowledge, innovation and education to build a culture of safety and resilience
at all levels
o Reduce the underlying risk factors
o Strengthen disaster preparedness for effective response at all levels

3. HRVA ( Hazard, Risk and Vulnerability Analysis)

Is one of the important and integral parts for disaster risk reduction that used to help a community
make risk-based choices to address vulnerabilities, mitigate hazards and prepare for response to,
recovery from, a range of hazard event. The HRVA:

o provides a comparison of risks that may possibly exist within a community across the
full spectrum of hazards, categorized into natural,technological, and conflict-related
hazards.
o Enhances the understanding of the relative risks posed to the community by each
hazard, as well as enables the community to prioritize risk management and
emergency preparedness activities in relation to those hazards that poses the greatest
risk.
