Representatives from the Disability Inclusive DRR Networks of Southeast Asia and Latin America and the Caribbean will discuss the necessity of including people with disabilities in DRR. Two years after the Sendai Framework, first steps have been made at different levels and regions, however the lack of knowledge and awareness about inclusion is still a reality.
