Regional Earthquake Recovery Dialogue for Building Back Better
Abstract:
This summary presents the lessons learnt during the dialogue, and a number of specific steps to be taken in the near future as a way forward. The United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP) along with SAARC Disaster Management Centre (SDMC) and the National Planning Commission (NPC), Government of Nepal, organised a regional recovery dialogue for building back better after the devastating earthquake that struck Nepal on 25 April 2015. The dialogue aimed to provide a road map for the recovery process after the earthquake. Disaster management experts from various organisations across the region participated in the dialogue to share their experience and the best practices followed in the region after major earthquakes. Their valuable contributions, in terms of the practices followed for disaster recovery, were eye-opening and will provide valuable support in the reconstruction process of Nepal. #RECOVERY #DISASTERMANAGEMENT #DIALOGUE #CONTRIBUTION #TRANSPARENCY #SUSTAINABILITY #EXPERIENCE #SIKKIM #APDIM #ESCAP #NPC
