About course

This course introduces the State of the Disaster Risk Reduction Framework (SDRF) and its taxonomy for classifying DRR strategies. By the end, you will be able to classify interventions, design comprehensive strategies, and analyze global impact frameworks.

Course Outline

  • Module 1 — SDRF Fundamentals: Origins, core concepts, and the 9-category taxonomy

  • Module 4 — Evaluation & Implementation: Policy integration, capstone project, final exam

Course Outcome

At the end of this course, you will be able to:

  • Classify DRR interventions across all nine SDRF taxonomy cells — mapping programs to hazard, exposure, and vulnerability dimensions using prospective, corrective, and compensatory intervention types
  • Analyze DRSF tables (A–G and DRRE) to interpret disaster impact data and diagnose systemic gaps and imbalances in national DRR expenditure profiles
  • Evaluate existing DRR strategies using a structured taxonomy-based assessment framework, applying equity criteria to identify under-served populations
  • Design comprehensive, equity-informed DRR strategies that achieve balanced coverage across all nine taxonomy categories and align with Sendai Framework targets
