Assessing contribution to the Sendai Framework: Case study of climate adaptation and disaster risk reduction projects across sectors in Asia-Pacific (2015–2020)

Asia-Pacific is one of the most highly vulnerable regions facing harsher impacts of climate change and related disasters due to its rapidly growing population, extensive use of resources for economic growth, diverse geological and topographical features, and other factors that include social and ins...
