Publication Overview/Description

The project, Developing Guidelines for Integrating Disaster Risk Information in Urban Land Use Planning in Myanmar is the next step in the progression of Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) work in the country conducted by Asian Disaster Preparedness Center (ADPC). Through support from the Australian Agency for International Development (AusAID), the goal of this project is to develop a feasible and implementable set of guidelines that integrate DRI into the land use planning process in urban areas
throughout Myanmar. These guidelines will help to ensure that hazard resiliency is considered when future land use decisions are made.
