This September Australia is partnering with the United Nations Office for disaster risk reduction to host the Asia-Pacific ministerial conference on disaster risk reduction in Brisbane, Australia. The Asia-Pacific is the most disaster-prone region in the world and disasters are increasing in their frequency and in their severity. The conference will focus on the theme from prices to resilience, transforming the Asia-Pacific region's future through disaster risk reduction. It provides an important opportunity to capture and share innovative and practical solutions to reduce the risk of disasters across the Asia-Pacific. As the first regional platform to be held since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the conference will bring together United Nations member states and key stakeholders to assess and accelerate progress in line with the Sendai framework for disaster risk reduction 2015-2030. The conference will be held at the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre, located in Brisbane's cultural South Bank precinct. Brisbane has a history of dealing with disasters including the recent catastrophic floods. Elegrants will be able to observe the city's disaster response facilities and risk reduction framework. The city is internationally connected with direct flights linking Brisbane to many Asia-Pacific destinations and beyond. Join us in Brisbane Australia for the Asia-Pacific Ministerial Conference on Disaster Risk Reduction from 19 to 22 September 2022.
