Do you know the difference between disaster risk reduction (DRR) and disaster risk management (DRM?

🌍 Disaster risk reduction (DRR) is why we act: preventing new risks, reducing existing ones, and building resilience.

⚙️ Disaster risk management (DRM) is how we act: the systems, plans, and actions that put DRR into practice – from building defences to preparing communities.

Together, DRR and DRM help shift our focus from reacting to disasters to reducing risks before they strike. This video breaks down the difference between the two concepts – and why understanding both matters for building resilience.
