The GPDRR 2025 is the global multi-stakeholder forum for taking stock and identifying gaps in the implementation of the Sendai Framework (2015-2030). The framework was signed by 187 countries, including Germany. It takes place every three years (every six years in Geneva). The platform serves to exchange best practices, innovative initiatives, and lessons learned in disaster risk management. The eighth session is the penultimate session before the Sendai Framework expires in 2030.
