At the Centre of Preparedness: Offering Innovative Local Solutions to Global Challenges

Disaster impact is not a given reality. Many disaster risks can be avoided or mitigated. All disaster impacts can be limited via systemic preparedness. To be prepared requires comprehension of exposure, vulnerability and hazards. Climate change leads to exacerbating vulnerabilities. Climate variability and extreme weather impact human health and safety, food and water security, and socio-economic conditions globally. These impacts will be worse in some regions and for already vulnerable communities. However, loss and damage from disaster impact can be limited. Prevention, mitigation, adaptation, preparedness, response and recovery determine the outcomes of disasters on countries, businesses and communities.

At PPI, we align knowledge to find the best possible measures that authorities, businesses, and communities can take to achieve resilience through preparedness.
