在管理此类发展风险时,减少灾害风险(DRR)和适应气候变化(适应)之间存在显着重叠。然而,这些议程到目前为止都是独立发展的。减少灾害风险可以应对当前的气候变异性,成为应对气候变化的第一道防线,因此是适应工作的一个重要组成部分。相反,减少灾害风险要取得成功,就需要考虑到与气候变化相关的不断变化的风险,并确保所采取的措施不会增加中长期内对气候变化的脆弱性。
In managing such risks to development, there is significant overlap between disaster risk reduction (DRR) and climate change adaptation (adaptation). However, these agendas have evolved independently until now. DRR can deal with current climate variability and be the first line defence against climate change, being therefore an essential part of adaptation. Conversely, for DRR to be successful, it needs to take account of the shifting risks associated with climate change and ensure that measures do not increase vulnerability to climate change in the medium to long-term.
