Incentives for Reducing Disaster Risk in Urban Areas: Experiences from Da Nang (Viet Nam), Kathmandu Valley (Nepal), and Naga City (Philippines)
Rating: 0 out of 5 stars
()
About this ebook
This document summarizes experiences of Da Nang, Viet Nam; the Kathmandu Valley, Nepal; and Naga City in the Philippines in providing incentives for disaster risk reduction. It explains what incentives are, how they are currently used in the case study areas to encourage investments in disaster risk reduction, and how to foster an enabling environment for a successful incentive program. While these incentives are not designed with disaster risk reduction as the primary purpose, many of them have either indirectly contributed to reducing disaster risk or, with minor modification, could directly contribute to risk reduction.
