    12. 12 13/11/2011 Common features Target the most vulnerable communities and institutions at local and national levels and through regional cooperation Multi-hazard approaches encouraged Partners encouraged to build synergies with development programmes Increased effort in the concept of “pilot” projects and replicability, documentation and dissemination Reinforce the response capacity through provision of basic equipment and stockpiling of response items at local level Climate change adaptation as a component of DRR Short-term operation: maximum 15 months

    13. 13 13/11/2011 Based on the lessons learnt Population must know what to do during and after the disaster Population is able to provide the first aid to victims Need of good coordination between local and national structures and the international cooperation agencies/NGO’s

    23. 23 13/11/2011 6. Conclusion

    24. 24 13/11/2011 Conclusion DRR is a key component of climate change adaptation and powerful way to reduce the relief needs DRR is a major concern for the EC and several financial instruments are available in this field Dipecho approach is very relevant but mainly limited to promotion, pilot operations and capacity building Need to hand-over Dipecho achievements to local and national authorities and to development operations Need to better capitalise the know-how developed and the good practises through exchange of information, networking
