4th National Conference on Disaster Risk Reduction (NCDRR) -2025
World Humanitarian Day (2025)
Disaster Preparedness Network-Nepal (DPNet), established in 1996, stands as a key national umbrella organization dedicated to enhancing disaster management in Nepal through a unified approach involving national and international agencies. The core focus of DPNet is on fostering coordination, collaboration, learning, and sharing of experiences in strengthening disaster management practices. The organization plays a crucial role in knowledge management, capacity building, policy advocacy, and in facilitating networking among government and relevant stakeholders.
A Network of Networks Meeting was held in Kathmandu to strengthen coordination among civil society networks, platforms, federations, and organizations working in disaster risk reduction, humanitarian response, climate resilience, localization, inclusion, and community preparedness in Nepal.
Speakers at the event emphasized the need for stronger disaster risk reduction, climate resilience, effective early warning systems, community-centred preparedness and multi-stakeholder collaboration to build a safer and more resilient Nepal.
The South Asia Policy Dialogue on “Building a Safer Future: Investing in Communities for Resilience” was successfully organized today at Hotel Shanker, Lazimpat, Kathmandu. The dialogue brought together senior government representatives, disaster risk reduction practitioners, civil society organizations, researchers, development partners, regional networks, and community resilience actors from across South Asia.
