Paragraph text
Disaster risk reduction and action to address climate change and its adverse effects in terms of internal displacement and other human rights issues must remain high on the international agenda. The Paris Agreement, reached after the twenty-first Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, is an essential step in the right direction that explicitly recognizes the need for individual and collective State action. That agreement must be implemented in practice by all parties.
