When Disasters Strike, Money Should Already be Moving
-(1).avif)
When disasters strike, too few countries have financing in place to respond. The consequences are real: disasters cost the world over $200 billion each year in direct losses, and the burden falls hardest on communities with the fewest resources to recover. Years of progress can unravel in days.
The Centre for Disaster Protection is a technical and policy advisory organisation focused on improving how the world plans and pays for disasters. We work alongside countries and organisations to put pre-arranged financing in place before shocks occur, so that when disaster strikes, money is in place and can move without delay.
Our work is impartial and grounded in evidence.
Client Services
We offer a wide range of advisory, capacity development and learning services, all impartially and free of charge.
