International Day for Disaster Risk Reduction began in 1989, after a call by the United Nations General Assembly for a day to promote a global culture of risk-awareness and disaster reduction. Held every 13 October, the day celebrates how people and communities around the world are reducing their exposure to disasters and raising awareness about the importance of reining in the risks that they face.
Join ADRRN and the global community to celebrate the 2019 International Day for Disaster Risk Reduction on 13 October 2019 to promote a global culture of risk-awareness and disaster reduction.
