Getting climate smart for disasters

The document outlines the Climate Smart Disaster Risk Management (CSDRM) approach, which is designed to identify barriers and opportunities for integrating climate change adaptation with disaster risk reduction (DRR). The approach serves as a guide for strategic planning and policymaking to assess the effectiveness of existing DRM policies under changing climate conditions. The project specifically analyzes two barriers to integration: the mismatched priorities between DRR institutions and the general public, and the necessity of diversified livelihoods to decrease climate dependency.

• The Climate Smart Disaster Risk Management (CSDRM) approach is used to identify barriers and opportunities for integrating climate change challenges with disaster risk reduction and development, as well as to identify policy innovation and monitor integration progress.
