Celebration of International Day for Disaster Risk Reduction 2024 and Opening of “Are you Ready?” Art Exhibition

Join us to celebrate the International Day for Disaster Risk Reduction (IDDRR) 2024 and the opening of the “Are you Ready?” art exhibition on disaster risk reduction. This event will feature participation from representatives across the Asia-Pacific region, including governments, the United Nations, non-governmental organizations, the private sector and the media.

The "Are you Ready?" art exhibition presents artworks that highlight the challenges and solutions related to disaster risk reduction in Asia and the Pacific. It highlights the role of art as a powerful form of education to raise awareness and inspire action to build more resilient communities, as is the theme of the IDDRR 2024. 

The exhibition is organized by the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNDRR) with the support of the Philippine Government and SM Prime, and with contributions from the UNESCO Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission and the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies.
