💰 How much are governments really investing in disaster risk reduction?
UNDRR has developed a practical tool to help governments identify, estimate, and track spending on disaster risk reduction through national budgets. This approach—known as budget tagging and tracking—makes investments in resilience more visible, measurable, and accountable.
In this video, learn how the system works:
📊 What a budget tagging and tracking system is
🧭 Why a taxonomy is essential to define what “counts” as disaster risk reduction
🔍 How governments scan budgets to identify relevant expenditures
🏷️ Why tagging different levels of relevance matters for accurate tracking
By understanding where public money is going, governments can strengthen investments in prevention, reduce disaster losses, and build resilience more effectively.
