19. Disaster Risk Reduction is a longer term agenda and unfortunately, there are no quick fix solutions. But we can expedite this process by moving relevant knowledge into capacity development in disaster-prone developing countries.
20. DRR community must work with scientific and technological community to benefit from the ground-breaking research and development for more efficient disaster risk reduction.
21. Finally, there is a need to adopt risk management approach and to better access market potential to manage risks including the risk transfer options for the national treasuries and private households.GFDRR is able to help developing countries reduce their vulnerability to natural disasters and adapt to climate change, thanks to the continued support of our partners: ACP Secretariat, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Denmark, European Commission, Finland, France, Germany, India, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, United Kingdom, United States, UN International Strategy for Disaster Reduction, and the World Bank.
