This high-level session will address the implication of disaster risk reduction in the instruments and mechanisms for public planning and budgeting, private initiative and Public-Private Partnerships, offering elements of analysis on the new conditions that countries must face in the framework of sustainable finance and sustainability financing, to foster inclusive and resilient development in a context of systemic risk. Experiences, lessons learnt and best practices of different actors in financing disaster risk management for evidence-based sustainable development will be shared. Innovative financing mechanisms for sustainable development will also be proposed, with a focus on disaster risk reduction, prospective disaster risk management and climate action.
