what is sendai
"Sendai" is a city in Japan. However, if you're referring to a legal term, it could be the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction *-*, a voluntary agreement aiming to reduce societies' risk to disasters. Could you please provide more context?
The Sendai Framework is an international agreement aimed at reducing disaster risk and losses in lives, livelihoods, health, and economic, physical, social, cultural, and environmental assets. It outlines seven global targets and four priorities for action:
Global Targets:
Substantially reduce global disaster mortality by *
Substantially reduce the number of affected people globally by *
Reduce direct disaster economic loss in relation to global GDP by *
Substantially reduce disaster damage to critical infrastructure and disruption of basic services by *
Substantially increase the number of countries with national and local disaster risk reduction strategies by *
Substantially enhance international cooperation to developing countries through adequate and sustainable support by *
Substantially increase the availability of and access to multi-hazard early warning systems and disaster risk information and assessments to people by *
Priorities for Action:
Understanding Disaster Risk: Disaster risk management needs to be based on an understanding of disaster risk in all its dimensions, including vulnerability, capacity, exposure, hazard characteristics, and the environment.
Strengthening Disaster Risk Governance: Disaster risk governance at the national, regional, and global levels is vital to manage disaster risk reduction in all sectors and ensure coherence of national and local frameworks of laws, regulations, and public policies.
Investing in Disaster Risk Reduction for Resilience: Public and private investment in disaster risk prevention and reduction through structural and non-structural measures is essential to enhance economic, social, health, and cultural resilience.
Enhancing Disaster Preparedness for Effective Response and Recovery: Disaster preparedness needs to be strengthened for more effective response and recovery, with a focus on “Build Back Better” principles.
Key Principles:
Primary responsibility of States to prevent and reduce disaster risk
Shared responsibility between central government and national authorities, sectors, and stakeholders
Protection of persons and their assets, promoting and protecting all human rights, including the right to development
Full engagement of all State institutions and empowerment of local authorities and communities
Inclusive and risk-informed decision-making, using a multi-hazard approach
Coherence of disaster risk reduction and sustainable development policies, plans, and practices
Addressing underlying risk factors cost-effectively, rather than relying primarily on post-disaster response and recovery
The Sendai Framework is managed by the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNDRR) and is closely linked with other international agreements, such as the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Paris Agreement on Climate Change.
