(Click to enlarge)
Global Hand has drafted a brief guide for business engagement with Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR).
‘The Why, What, How of private sector engagement with DRR’ outlines a business case for engagement in DRR, lists disaster types and gives industry specific suggestions. Case studies are given to inspire and inform, and further resources supplied to equip the private sector with resources to be able to engage appropriately in DRR.
All responses are very welcome. Please feel free to email your comments.
