Title Resilience and Disaster Risk Reduction of the Danube Region
Summary In 2015 environmental global governance has changed officially from reactive disaster management to proactive disaster risk reduction. Defined by Sendai Framework, 2030 Agenda and Paris Agreement, a new holistic approach is set up for the topic of disaster risk reduction and resilience, development and climate change. In that motion this research was looking for an answer on the question - if the Danube Region has a regional resilience and disaster risk governance?
Research was based on qualitative analysis of existing documents and policies on global, EU and Danube macro-regional level. It was supported with case studies of flooding and landslide events, as the most common regional natural hazards with common triggering factors.
Analysis resulted with the answer that the Danube Region does not have regional resilience and disaster risk reduction, although it does have many different strategies, plans and documentations.
