The United Nations General Assembly has designated 13 October as International Day for Disaster Reduction to promote a global culture of risk-awareness and disaster reduction, after a call by the United Nations General Assembly in 1989. The day celebrates how people and communities around the world are reducing their exposure to disasters and raising awareness about the importance of reining in the risks that they face. For 25 years, the International Day for Disaster Reduction (IDDR) has been a major global awareness event to recognize progress and encourage further efforts to build disaster resilience at communities and nations.
