The DRRRF is one of the five pillars of the Global Bank - DRRRF’s comprehensive Disaster Risk Management (DRM) framework which promotes the mainstreaming of disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation in a broader country development agenda. This is in line with the implementation of Priority Action Number Four of the Hyogo Framework for Action (HFA) – to reduce disaster risk by addressing underlying key factors.
