This document is the first DFID review of the ISDR’s regional offices which are based in Africa (Nairobi) and Latin America and the Caribbean (Costa Rica). The main purpose of this review is to evaluate: a) what impact and value-added the Strategy and Secretariat is having in the regions and how this impact is monitored; b) the relevance and appropriateness of the Secretariat’s objectives at the regional level; c) how effectively the Secretariat’s Workplan is being rolled out into the regions; and d) the effectiveness of mechanisms for coordination between the regions and the Secretariat in Geneva.
The Fourth Session of the Global Platform for Disaster Risk Reduction will take place in Geneva, Switzerland in May 2013.
