  1. Toward a Post 2015 DRR Framework Jean Luc Poncelet, MD, MPH

  2. Main achievements of HFA • Build on Yokohama declaration • Disaster Risk can be reduced to a large extend • Concrete results like Safe Hospitals Campaign • At present 10% of the 17,600 hospitals have been assessed • out of 462 hospitals 17 % are Cat C • 57% have been intervened • A regional plan approved by MoH • A safety index developed an used for other facilities (education…)

  3. Challenge 1: address the real issue • Disaster is health and social impact

  4. Challenges 2 • Define reachable targets • It took centuries to build the vulnerability of our society …. • Gain a real Political support for issues that require more then a 4 year mandate to make a difference • Cut it smaller pieces • The stove pipe approach of our society: • Health of the community is seen as health sector responsibility however there is no safe hospitals without electricity, water, access/road, paid personal, etc… • Identify a common across-the-sector target (multi-setorial)

  5. Criteria for Post 2015 • Go to the roots of disaster impact: • Select topics that link (more) concretely risk reduction to protecting community physical, mental and social well-being. • Go to the real challenge of risk reduction: its “multi-sectorial” nature. Health is the most dependent of all issue in our society. A health issue in which all sector can contribute is the best indicator of our post 2015 success.

  6. Millennium development goal post 2015 • MDG post 2015 should ensure that all new investment and activities contribute at increasing resilience.
