Registration is extended until January 26th

The registration period for participation in the VIII Regional Platform for Disaster Risk Reduction in the Americas and the Caribbean (RP23) has been extended until January 26, 2023.

For this important meeting, Uruguay has proposed the topics of science, technology and early warning systems, under the title "Science and Technology for Comprehensive Disaster Risk Management", as the central focus of the RP23. The role of science and technology in integrated disaster risk management should be highlighted, especially with regard to its feasibility, development, financing and implementation. 

The RP23 represents an opportunity for governments, intergovernmental bodies, the private sector, civil society, scientific-technological community, cooperation agencies and donors, as well as other relevant stakeholders in the Americas and the Caribbean, to exchange experiences and facilitate decisions in the implementation of the
Regional Action Plan (RAP) for the implementation of the Sendai Framework in the Americas and the Caribbean, agreed in March 2017 in Montreal, Canada, and updated under the auspice of the Government of Jamaica in November 2021
