The FY20 Activity Report for the Result Area 2 Program highlights how despite the COVID-19 pandemic, African Regional Economic Communities have continued providing their respective member states with key technical assistance to improve their human, institutional, and financial resources dedicated to strengthening resilience to disaster risk and climate change.
The Result Area 2 Program was indispensable in coordinating regional efforts by anchoring several high-level meetings between DRM practitioners. FY20 also saw each REC endorse an action plan to fully integrate gender considerations into their DRM policies, laying the foundations for long-term regional resilience frameworks for the 2020-2030 decade.
