Governance structures for internal displacement 2015, para. 49
Paragraph- Paragraph text
- Authorities at all levels can take a number of measures to establish adequate disaster risk reduction and management systems. Some countries have established specific legal and policy frameworks on disaster risk reduction and management with a strong focus on displacement risk. Where disaster risk reduction systems already exist, they should be reviewed to ensure that they adequately integrate displacement issues. Disaster risk reduction and management strategies should also be mainstreamed across government bodies and forums established at the national and local levels to build awareness about disaster risk and disseminate specific information.
