climate resilience and disaster risk reduction
Climate resilience refers to the ability of individuals, communities, and systems to withstand and recover from the adverse impacts of climate change, such as extreme weather events or prolonged droughts. Disaster risk reduction, on the other hand, involves implementing measures to lessen vulnerability and enhance preparedness, response, and recovery strategies, minimizing the impact of hazards or disasters on communities and ecosystems. Both concepts focus on building resilience and improving the ability to adapt to climate-related threats.
