The Natural Disaster Risk Management (NDRM) Programme is an initiative of the African, Caribbean and Pacific Group of States, funded by the European Union to support disaster risk reduction (DRR) and climate change adaptation (CCA) activities in the Caribbean Region. Launched in July 2014, this initiative is being co-implemented by the Caribbean Disaster Emergency Management Agency (CDEMA), the Caribbean Development Bank (CDB), and the Government of the Dominican Republic. The NDRM Programme is part of a long-established co-operation effort aimed to bring together partner entities from African, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) countries that are actively involved in disaster and climate change management. The programme’s main objective is to help reduce vulnerability to the long-term impacts of natural hazards, including the potential impacts of climate variability and change (CVC). It is also expected to achieve regional and national sustainable development and poverty reduction goals in the Caribbean Forum (CARIFORUM) countries. Towards the achievement of its objectives the NDRM seeks to strengthen regional, national and community capabilities to deal with natural hazards and the effects of CVC through co-ordinated interventions and timely responses.
