From October 14 to 16 2009 FDC held a Disaster Risk Management (DRM) workshop in Port Moresby, PNG in partnership with TorqAid. The workshop included participants from a range of local and international organisations such as the PNG National Disaster Center, AusAID, World Vision and HOPE Worldwide. PNG is vulnerable to a number of both natural and man-made disasters such as those caused by volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, flooding, HIV/AIDS and climate change. The workshop focused on methods to evaluate and strengthen DRM and Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) initiatives through all stages of project development and implementation.
