29 de abr. de 2024 · Disaster Risk Management. Disasters hurt the poor and vulnerable the most. Over the past decade, the World Bank has emerged as the global leader in disaster risk management, supporting client countries to assess exposure to hazards and address disaster risks.
Natural disasters are hazardous geophysical, meteorological, hydrological, climatological, and/or biological events that disturb human and natural environments, causing injuries, casualties, property damages, and business interruptions.
In a world confronted with an ever-more complex and uncertain risk landscape, one where climate change and systemic risks threaten our social, economic and financial systems, effective Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) depends on a better understanding of the interconnected nature of hazards, exposure and vulnerability.
The risk caused by natural hazards is extremely high and increasing. Since 1990, reported disasters have led to over 1.6 million fatalities globally, and economic losses are estimated at an average of around USD 260–310 billion per year (UNDRR, 2015a).
