Strengthening Capacity on Disaster Risk Assessment, Reduction, and Transfer Instruments in Mongolia

Closed

The proposed knowledge and support technical assistance (TA) will help the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) of Mongolia develop the legal, policy, and institutional frameworks needed to strengthen disaster risk assessments and promote disaster risk reduction (DRR) and disaster risk financing and insurance in Mongolia. The TA will improve the capacity and ability of NEMA, ministries, local government officials, and communities to understand and better plan for disaster risks and respond to disasters. The knowledge and outputs generated through the TA will also provide evidence-based policy recommendations and a draft law for disaster insurance as a key financial risk management tool.
