GDPC- FY13 in Review

FY13 in review from the Global Disaster Preparedness Center

The Global Disaster Preparedness Center (“Center”) is both a resource center and think tank that promotes innovation in disaster preparedness and supports research and knowledge sharing amongst disaster preparedness professionals worldwide. Established in 2012 by the American Red Cross and the IFRC, our primary aim is to strengthen the disaster preparedness capacities of the global Red Cross and Red Crescent network, while also contributing to wider preparedness efforts in order to help safeguard communities from future disasters. Through research and the promotion of innovation and effective approaches to disaster preparedness, the Center strives to increase the impact of preparedness activities around the world.
