The panel brings together international experts with a diverse range of experience in disaster risk reduction: from government agencies, the World Bank, humanitarian NGOs to academics involved with teaching and research. The panellists will discuss the ways by which we can reduce disaster risks - from communities and businesses, through to national governments and international organisations.
