DATA IDENTIFICATION
-
-
Name
-
Number of countries that adopt and implement national disaster risk reduction strategies in line with the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015–2030
-
Indicator purpose
-
The indicator will build a bridge between the SDGs and the Sendai Framework for DRR. Increasing the number of national governments that adopt and implement national and local DRR strategies will contribute to sustainable development from economic, environmental and social perspectives.
-
Abstract
-
An open-ended intergovernmental expert working group on indicators and terminology relating to disaster risk reduction established by the General Assembly is developing a set of indicators to measure global progress in the implementation of the Sendai Framework. These indicators will eventually reflect the agreements on the Sendai Framework indicators.

The HFA Monitor started in 2007 and over time, the number of countries reporting to UNISDR increased from 60 in 2007 to 140+ countries now undertaking voluntary self-assessment of progress in implementing the HFA. During the four reporting cycles to 2015, the HFA Monitor has generated the world’s largest repository of information on national DRR policy inter alia. Its successor, provisionally named the Sendai Monitor, is under development and will be informed by the recommendations of the OEIWG. A baseline as of 2015 is expected to be created in 2016-2017 that will facilitate reporting on progress in achieving the relevant targets of both the Sendai Framework and the SDGs.

Key statistical concepts

Computation methodology for several indicators is very comprehensive, very long (about 180 pages) and probably out of the scope of this Metadata. UNISDR prefers to refer to the outcome of the Open-Ended Intergovernmental Working Group, which provides a full detailed methodology for each indicator and sub-indicator. The latest version of these methodologies can be obtained at:
