The head of UNISDR, Margareta Wahlström, said: “More than half the world’s population now lives in urban centres, and how we manage urban risk will be a key element of the new global agreement on disaster risk reduction, which will be adopted next year and follow on from the existing Hyogo Framework for Action. Our objective is to help cities to plan and build for the future in a way that creates a safer environment for their citizens.
