Madagascar grapples with a diverse set of crises ranging from cyclones to drought. This reality necessitates a comprehensive response strategy. In this video, General Olivier Elack details how the country has implemented national policies and legal frameworks for disaster risk management, enhancing governance, and risk mitigation practices. Efforts include improving the alert system and leveraging technology to boost effectiveness. Collaboration across sectors, including the private sector, academia, research institutions, and local communities, is vital for finding solutions. Nature-based approaches like reforestation and dune stabilization are also critical for prevention.

About UNDRR:

The United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNDRR) has a big ambition: to help decision-makers across the globe better understand and act on risk. At UNDRR, we believe there is no such thing as a natural disaster. A natural hazard, such as a hurricane, earthquake, or flood, only becomes a disaster when it impacts a community that is not adequately protected and whose population is vulnerable as a result of poverty, exclusion, or social disadvantage. We envision a world where disasters no longer threaten the well-being of people and the future of the planet. Sustainable development and the 2030 Agenda cannot be achieved without working towards the goal of building resilience.
