Disaster risk reduction gets only 0.4 percent of aid
The international community spent $13.5 billion on reducing the risk of disasters in the past two decades, just 40 cents for every $100 of aid, and a tiny amount compared with the $862 billion in disaster losses suffered by developing countries, according to a new ODI report.
This project aims to give technical assistance to the Rwandan private sector, civil society organisations and government agencies to access financing from FONERWA and other sources to support environmental sustainability, resilience to climate change, and green growth.
This project seeks to understand what success looks like for private sector DRM initiatives and public-private partnerships, and set out recommendations for public and private sector decision makers.
