Disasters affect us where we live, work and connect. This year’s International Day for Disaster Risk Reduction theme, Resilience Starts at Home, reminds us that homes are not just places where disaster impacts are felt, but where resilience can be built every day. From the decisions we make about where and how we live, to the relationships that connect us with neighbours and community networks, our homes are at the heart of disaster risk reduction.
Join AIDR for a thought-provoking discussion exploring how individuals, communities and organisations can work together to create safer, more resilient futures. Through practical examples and community-led initiatives, this webinar will examine how preparedness, social connection, inclusive engagement and local action can strengthen resilience before, during and after disasters.
Moving beyond emergency kits and household plans, we'll explore the broader factors that shape risk, including housing, community networks, access to information and support, and the actions we can all take to reduce vulnerability and build resilience where it matters most. Participants will leave with fresh perspectives, practical ideas and inspiration to take action in their own homes and communities.
