résumé/extrait

This paper presents IOM’s efforts to support vulnerable and mobile communities affected by environmental hazards through disaster risk reduction (DRR) and climate change adaptation (CCA) activities conducive to sustainable development.

Extrait du document : p 6-7 : « IOM’s involvement in coordinated humanitarian response stems from its Constitution and was6expanded upon in the Organization’s 12-point Strategy17 adopted by the membership in 2007. DRM is at the core of humanitarian emergency response as it includes life-saving activities implemented in the course or in the immediate aftermath of a disaster. Timely and efficient assistance and protection depend on emergency preparedness, namely increasing the capacity of the humanitarian community to identify potential crises and be ready to deploy an effective response when a crisis unfolds ».
