Abstract:
Following the adoption of the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030, an increasing number of disability-inclusive disaster risk reduction (DiDRR) projects have been implemented by disaster risk reduction (DRR) organisations together with organisations of persons with disabilities (OPDs). Yet, as this paper argues, the general approach of DiDRR is still predominantly based on a DRR perspective. Consequently, the OPDs involved in DiDRR often include additional project components to address their broader issues while also implementing DRR. This paper draws on the experiences of two pioneer DiDRR programmes: the Community Resilience Programme in the Philippines from 2015-18; and the Putting Sendai Framework into Action programme in the Asia-Pacific from 2017-20. It outlines the differences between the viewpoints of DRR organisations and OPDs on implementing DiDRR. In conclusion, the paper suggests that DiDRR initiatives should accommodate the broader disability issues raised by OPDs to achieve more meaningful disability inclusion in DRR.
