Threat assessment

(v) Risk management.

Old age, disability and survivors' pensions

Currently two thirds of all disasters are climate or weather related and the trend of increase in their number outnumber other hazards.

A Better Way to Reduce Nuclear Risks

Emphasizing also the importance of integrating risk reduction into all phases of disaster management, development planning and post disaster recovery,

But the emergence of new dangers does not lighten the burden of dealing with the old ones, and addressing the old ones is no reason not to face up to the new ones.

Threats to international peace and security

Response to malicious acts or threats thereof

The Hyogo Framework sets out specific priorities for action on early warning for all hazards and on associated risk assessment and preparedness.

Let us not forget, however, the other hazards that people in all regions of the world are exposed to, including storms, floods, droughts, landslides, heat waves and volcanic eruptions.

First, the element of particular risks referred to in the third preambular paragraph of the Protocol is an important one that needs to be appropriately verified in every case.

Emphasizing the importance of addressing vulnerability and integrating risk reduction into all phases of natural disaster management, post natural disaster recovery and development planning,

In that connection, we would like to declare our support for the Secretary General's recommendation for an early warning system for all natural hazards, building on existing national and regional capacity.

Integrating risk reduction into recovery

Such risk evaluations or information on alternative risk mitigation measures submitted by Parties may be found on the Rotterdam Convention web site (www.pic.int).

Encourages all States to apply a gender perspective in developing international migration policies and programmes in order to adopt the necessary measures to better protect women and girls against dangers and abuse during migration

In all countries affected by emergencies, UNICEF will support the inclusion in rapid assessments, and where relevant in programmatic responses, of the risks and vulnerabilities of adolescents and young people.

Encourages all States to apply a gender perspective in developing international migration policies and programmes in order to adopt the necessary measures to better protect women and girls against dangers and abuse during migration

All respondents believed that, based on their experiences, the challenges to individual UNMOs were becoming more demanding and the threats to their security and personal safety were increasing.

Disasters may be both a consequence and a cause of environmental degradation.

Monitoring risks is also a major component of the responsibilities of the Chief.

The overall threat assessment for Afghanistan remains unchanged.

Taking into account that geological and hydro meteorological hazards and their associated natural disasters and their reduction must be addressed in a coherent and effective manner,

Natural hazards cannot be prevented, but damage caused by hazards can be prevented and avoided by proper preparedness, response and mitigation efforts.

Emphasizing the importance of addressing vulnerability and integrating risk reduction into all phases of natural disaster management, post natural disaster recovery and development planning,

That is why, now more than ever, we must redouble our vigilance to consolidate our stability by fighting against the threats looming over us, particularly those stemming from terrorism.

14. Calls upon the international community to support the development and strengthening of institutions, mechanisms and capacities at all levels, in particular at the community level, that can systematically contribute to building resilience to hazards

In that connection, work continues on establishment of a worldwide early warning system for all natural hazards (ibid., para. 56 (f)) in the context of the implementation of the Hyogo Declaration and Framework for Action.

Threats to international peace and security caused by terrorist acts

Risk reduction, therefore, entails reducing vulnerability to hazards.

Threats to international peace and security caused by terrorist acts

Exceptional risk must be defined in a situation specific manner.

Rather, it acted as an early warning system that identified and assessed potential risks.

Our political will must be revived because the stakes are so high.

The meeting was called to order at 10.15 a.m.

The situation in Côte d'Ivoire

The interrelatedness of the threats had been noted by the High level Panel on Threats, Challenges and Change, which had stated that today, more than ever before, security threats were interrelated.

14. Calls upon the international community to support the development and strengthening of institutions, mechanisms and capacities at all levels, in particular at the community level, that can systematically contribute to building resilience to hazards

13. Calls upon the international community to support the development and strengthening of institutions, mechanisms and capacities at all levels, in particular at the community level, that can systematically contribute to building resilience to hazards

Extreme poverty, degradation of natural resources and global environmental change combine to form a vicious downward spiral that can undermine all development efforts and heighten potential threats of conflict and insecurity at all levels, including by increasing vulnerability in small island developing States.

We urge all States to take seriously those threats to maritime safety and to continue to collaborate with all relevant stakeholders, including the shipping industry, coastal communities and the international community, to properly address those concerns.
