Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery

Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery is a global partnership managed by the World Bank that helps developing countries better understand, reduce, and manage disaster and climate risks. It supports technical assistance, analytics, financing strategies, and resilience planning for governments exposed to hazards such as floods, cyclones, droughts, and earthquakes. In the Madagascar urban resilience project, GFDRR is linked to support for disaster risk management and climate-resilient urban planning.
