This year, Ä¢¹½´«Ã½ ROAS marked IDDRR through diverse events across the Arab region, emphasizing the pivotal role of education in protecting children and youth from disasters while empowering them to contribute to disaster-resilient communities.

Libraries play a crucial role in disaster risk reduction by protecting cultural heritage, providing shelter, and offering critical information. DRR also urges libraries to reduce climate impacts and support social-emotional wellbeing in communities.

For IDDRR, UNECE warns that climate change and the energy transition are increasing the likelihood of catastrophic accidents linked to industrial and technological facilities such as chemical plants, battery factories, mining sites.
