Making Cities Resilient: United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction

“The “Making Cities Resilient” campaign addresses issues of local governance and urban risk while drawing upon previous UNISDR Campaigns on safer schools and hospitals, as well as on the sustainable urbanizations principles developed in the UN-Habitat World Urban Campaign 2009-2013. With the support and recommendation by many partners and participants, and a Mayor’s statement made during the 2011 Global Platform for Disaster Risk Reduction, the “Making Cities Resilient” campaign will continue to run at least until 2015.” – UNISDR
