Austrian Society for Disaster Risk Reduction
Funded by the Austrian Development Agency (ADA), the Agency for Austrian development cooperation.
The Austrian Society for Disaster Risk Reduction (ASDRR) is a NPO with the aim to promote Austrian know-how in the field of disaster risk reduction for development assistance.
Importance of the risk management
Our daily lives and living environment as well as infrastructure, economy, and ecology are often endangered by natural hazards. Especially in developing countries population growth and rapid infrastructure expansion lead to conflicts of interest in land use. Hence, lives and goods become exposed to natural hazards like rock falls, avalanches, landslides or debris flows. Therefore it is important to make people aware of the risk and mediate a whole risk management cycle.
