Albanian Red Cross initiated several projects related to
community-based disaster-risk management
education, early warning system development,
and a country-wide awareness-raising campaign
during International Disaster Risk Reduction Day.
Under the Zurich Flood Resilience Alliance
programme, TV and radio spot campaigns in
Mozambique were launched to prepare people
for the rainy season, by working with a potential
coverage of almost 285,000 families (TVA Radio)
and 189,000 families (Radio Hope).
The IFRC provided support to the National
Societies on the preparations of early action
protocols, contingency plans and community
training towards innovation measures, against
climate change. In the Americas, the National
Societies received follow-up of these actions and
technical support from the Cluster delegation.
As a result, 10,000 people in
Argentina , 3,000 in
Paraguay and 5,000 in Uruguay, were involved
in climate and environmental activities.
Disaster risk and response assessments and
training related to climate change (including
nature-based solutions (NbS) were also made
with support of the IFRC in many Country
Delegations. In Colombia, the IFRC supported
the National Society’s efforts to develop climate
and environment strategies, such as the National
Workshop on Flood Resilience Measurement
for Communities. The IFRC also supported the
Dominican Red Cross and
Bolivian Red Cross to create contingency plans. Furthermore, the
IFRC in Bolivia, provided technical guidance and
connections with the
German Red Cross for
the creation of forecast-based financing projects.
In
Eswatini , the IFRC legal team guided the
new Disaster Management Bill 2022 to include
Disaster Law.
