Afghanistan
Disaster management strategy (2014-2017)
The strategy aims to expand co-ordination and collaboration within Ministry of Rural Rehabilitation and Development (MRRD) programmes to improve cohesiveness, and reducing or removing duplication of efforts amongst internal and external stakeholders.
The main objectives are: 1) to institutionalise and integrate risk reduction systems in MRRD’s development Programmes; 2) Addressing the social and economic marginalisation of those more vulnerable to disasters; 3) to address disaster recovery need of the community and ensure emergency response and immediate relief with MRRD programmes.
