The Global Platform is the main information and knowledge exchange forum on disaster risk reduction. Risks are everywhere all the time, but preparedness is the key to prevent risk from turning into a disaster.
Hosting the Global Platform for Disaster Risk Reduction in Geneva in 2025 highlights Switzerland’s key role in international humanitarian governance. As a hub of multilateral diplomacy, Geneva provides a unique setting to strengthen global cooperation in the face of rising risks. It is a call to action for a more resilient future from the "city that works for the world".
