• The risk accumulates over the years ― It’s a

slow onset process.

• One hazard triggers another in specific context
• f arid and semi-arid regions.
• Droughts, typically associated with vegetation

decline and drier soils, frequently result in greater sand and dust storm activity.

• Cause and effects of risk accumulation cover a

large and spatially linked geography. The hypersaline Lake Urmia in north western Islamic Republic of Iran lost 90 per cent of its surface area between July 1998 and June 2014, which resulted in desertification, and sand and dust storms.

Water stress increasingly severe in high-risk areas associated with drought, land degradation, desertification and sand and dust storms.

According to the World Resources Institute (2015), nearly 80% of the global population

exposed to flood risk lives in 15 countries.

Of these, 10 countries are in the Asia-Pacific region.

A substantial increase in flood losses under both moderate and severe climate scenarios. China, India, Bangladesh and Pakistan will experience two to three times more in flood losses The transboundary flood losses will range from 1.2 to 6 times more in the major river- basins

APDIM strategic plan

Information and knowledge repository

Regional repository

• f databases,

information and knowledge Regional hub of new tools, techniques and standards for information management

Capacity development

Regional capacity development hub for exchange of expertise, experiences and knowledge Demand driven and customized training services to address information and knowledge gaps

Regional information services for cross- border disasters

Specialized services (geospatial & statistical) for cross- border disasters Regional information (maps & databases) for cross-border disasters

Three pillars conveying APDIM’s thematic priorities

Establishing regional cloud- based metadata platform

• Partnership at regional level with UNDP,

IRIDeS under the Global Centre for Disaster Statistics (GCDS) for complementing global and regional linkage of disaster information and data

• NCC provide technical advice on format
• f geospatial information and platform

configuration following UN-GGIM

• APDIM is developing the Asia-Pacific

Disaster Risk Atlas

• Operationalize the Atlas as regional
• nline repository of multi-hazard risk

information related to cross-border disasters

Information and knowledge repository pillar

Capacity development programme focusing on Sendai Framework monitoring and disaster loss databases

• National training on Sendai Framework Monitoring in the Islamic

Republic of Iran and Pakistan as initial pilot countries in 2019 respectively with NDMO of Iran and NDMA of Pakistan and UNCTs, in partnership with UNISDR

• Capacity development on retrofitting of disaster loss databases in the

Islamic Republic of Iran with NDMO and UNCT, in partnership with UNDP/GCDS

• Regional training programmes on disaster information management

in multi-hazard risks in partnership with regional and national centres

• f excellence

• Partnerships/

network

• Alert system
• Multi-hazard risk

assessment

APDIM’s Work: Sand and Dust Storms

Regional slow-onset hazards network and alert system, with initial focus on sand and dust storm

• ESCAP/APDIM analytical report on

Sand and Dust Storms in Asia and the Pacific provided regional framework for combatting sand and dust storms

• Built partnership network for slow-
• nset and cross-border disasters.

Capitalize on UNEP, UNCCD, WMO, UNDP and UN Coalition on Sand and Dust Storm

• Implementation plan to develop a

regional network and SDS alert system, starting with subregional South-West and Central Asia
