đź“° What if disaster communication started before the disaster?
Kamal Kishore, Special Representative of the UN Secretary-General for Disaster Risk Reduction, emphasizes the urgent need for proactive partnerships between disaster agencies and the media. 📡🤝

Too often, communication begins only when a crisis is imminent. But real resilience starts with ongoing dialogue—long before disaster strikes. Kishore recommends that every national disaster agency meet with media partners at least twice a year, to build trust, share risk insights, and prepare for coordinated response.

Because when disaster hits, clear communication saves lives.
