ICMIF member initiatives will help implement the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction

On Friday 30 April 2021, ICMIF hosted a webinar as the formal launch event for the joint ICMIF-UNDRR report, From protection to prevention: The role of cooperative and mutual insurance in disaster risk reduction. The report identifies seven practical mechanisms for how the cooperative and mutual insurance sector can help drive prevention and disaster risk reduction. Based on an analysis of 20 case studies from ICMIF members, the mechanisms provide a practical way for the cooperative and mutual insurance sector to implement the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction. The webinar also showcased the first pilot projects from ICMIF members working in collaboration with UNDRR to put the mechanisms into practice. Over 400 individuals registered for the webinar, making this ICMIF’s most popular webinar to date. Since its launch the report has been downloaded over 120 times.
