As millions move into urban environments around the globe and human-induced climate change destabilises weather patterns, impacts from natural disasters are rising at an alarming rate. Average annual losses from these events now range from $150-200 billion—a remarkable and worrying figure, but one that does not capture the extensive and disproportionate hardship suffered by the poorest and most vulnerable populations, which would more than double these numbers if taken into account. However, the international community is responding. Over the last two year, we have seen some of the most important milestones in disaster risk management in recent decades. The adoption of the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction, which will guide action on disaster risk reduction for the next 15 years, was a major international achievement that set the stage for other important policy agreements that will help shape a more resilient future. In September 2015, members of the United Nations General Assembly ratified the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Crucial to the success of this agenda is the resilience of communities in the face of growing climate and disaster risk. Months later, the world convened in Paris at the 21st Conference of the Parties of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) to adopt a bold, global agreement to address the devastating effects of climate change. And in May 2016, the first-ever World Humanitarian Summit was held in Istanbul, where a Global Preparedness Partnership of 20 highly- vulnerable developing nations committed to improving their resilience to future disasters brought about by growing climate risk. Throughout these historic achievements, the Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery (GFDRR) has worked closely with different stakeholders to ensure that disaster risk management was woven into the fabric of the Sustainable Development Goals, the Paris Agreement, and policies aimed at reducing the humanitarian burden around the globe. GFDRR’s strategic technical expertise, along with its unique leverage of development financing through small grants, enable it to play an integral role in these important conversations, whether tackling gender disparity, promoting citizen engagement, or addressing the important links between disaster risk, fragility, and conflict. Annual Report 2016 Bringing Resilience to Scale / vii John Roome Manuel Sager CG Chair CG Co-Chair This annual report highlights the results of GFDRR’s grants, technical assistance, and knowledge-sharing activities in the fiscal year 2016 (FY16). Through its growing program, GFDRR worked to bring resilience to scale in vulnerable countries by integrating comprehensive approaches to disaster risk management into development policies and planning. By empowering its many partners and providing clear leadership on the international stage, GFDRR helped make communities in more than 70 countries around the world safer and more prosperous. This report shows that tremendous progress has been made in these efforts, and reveals the momentum—and the challenges—that will animate the years to come.

It provides an overview of GFDRR’s grant-making as implemented through the Country Program, and how these activities support the Sendai Framework for Disaster Reduction and Recovery, the Paris Agreement on Climate Change, and the Sustainable Development Goals. It highlights progress under GFDRR’s eight Thematic Initiatives, and cross-cutting priorities such as women empowerment and resilience to climate change, as well as support to international cooperation and building knowledge and capacity for disaster risk management (DRM). The report also presents details of GFDRR’s financial performance during the year. A Year of Action and Consensus FY16 saw GFDRR continue to deliver strong outcomes at the same time that its core mission of building resilience was bolstered by major new international agreements, including the Paris Agreement on Climate Change, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction. The active portfolio of grants comprising GFDRR’s Country Program rose 11% year-on- year to $240 million across 70 countries, 25 of which were fragile and conflict-affected states. Disbursements during FY16 amounted to $63 million. This growth reflected continued demand in developing countries for support that builds long-term resilience to natural hazards and climate change. The program made strides towards helping scale up investments for resilience in fragile and vulnerable countries—including Togo, Myanmar, Uzbekistan, and Dominica—as well as supporting urgent recovery efforts in countries such as Nepal and Ecuador. The international community placed resilience at the heart of the SDGs, the World Humanitarian Summit, and the Paris Agreement. GFDRR actively supported this global dialogue: it added to the evidence base informing global climate negotiations through flagship analytical reports such as Shock Waves: Managing the Impacts of Climate Change on Poverty, and it helped drive progress by convening new coalitions of public and private actors such as the first Insurance Development Forum. GFDRR’s technical engagement added to growing consensus on areas such as hydro-meteorological services, which saw growing support for delivering universal access to weather and climate information to empower citizens to protect themselves from natural hazards. GFDRR sustained strong momentum on delivering resilience outcomes at global scale, reflecting the engagement of the donors contributing to its Multi-Donor Trust Fund and to special programs supported by the European Union and Japan. Technical assistance grants were deployed strategically to crowd in much larger investments for resilience. This was exemplified in South Asia, where GFDRR grants influenced a total of $1 billion in Annual Report 2016 Bringing Resilience to Scale / xi development financing during FY16 as governments and donors rallied around the need to scale up risk reduction. GFDRR’s Thematic Initiatives pushed the frontier of practice in areas such as geospatial data, risk financing, and resilience of small island states. FY16 saw special attention to women’s empowerment as a cross-cutting theme. In FY16, 62% of GFDRR grants were gender-informed, of which two-thirds had specific actions to empower women. GFDRR’s Consultative Group approved a Gender Action Plan including a framework to track progress towards applying gender-sensitive approaches across all GFDRR grants. Driving Outcomes at the Country Level GFDRR’s Country Program financed demand-driven technical assistance in 70 countries during FY16. Activities spanned each continent, and were selected based on high impact potential through leveraging investments at scale or driving policy changes. Africa received the largest share of GFDRR resources in FY16, with 23 countries supported. Engagements included the Africa Hydromet Program, where GFDRR joined with the African Development Bank, World Meteorological Organization (WMO), and others to support modernization of hydro-meteorological services nationally and regionally. New risk assessments were financed in Ethiopia, Kenya, Niger, Senegal, and Uganda, while GFDRR’s engagement in Mali helped design and mobilize a $22.75 million investment to expand access to weather information. In East Asia and Pacific, key interventions included a post-disaster needs assessment (PDNA) in Myanmar which informed more than $400 million in investments for emergency recovery from the devastating 2015 floods and landslides. GFDRR supported efforts to consolidate and scale up DRM efforts, such as through the Southeast Asia Disaster Resilience Program—which supports risk pooling in Cambodia, Lao PDR, and Myanmar— and through coordinated early warning and risk reduction investments in Pacific Island Countries. An important area of progress remains the Philippines, where a $500 million contingent credit line (a Catastrophe Deferred Drawdown Option) was approved, building on extensive groundwork supported by GFDRR. In Latin America and the Caribbean, GFDRR continued to provide countries with sophisticated solutions such as advanced risk assessments and modeling to inform development policy and planning. Cities such as Medellin, Porto Alegre, and Mexico City have requested support to transfer catastrophe risk to the capital markets. GFDRR supported the expansion of the Caribbean Catastrophe Risk Insurance Facility to seven additional countries, supported a safer schools investment in Peru that benefited 278,000 students, and informed the design of a $150 million risk mitigation and emergency recovery project in Ecuador. xii / Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery (GFDRR) In the Middle East and North Africa, GFDRR applied technical approaches developed through post-disaster needs assessments in Iraq, Syria, and Yemen to assess post-conflict reconstruction needs. GFDRR provided financial assistance to women-run initiatives strengthening resilience in Egypt and Lebanon, helped integrate risk reduction into the urban resilience master plan of Beirut, and informed the application of innovative results- based financing approaches to a $200 million investment in Morocco. In Europe and Central Asia, GFDRR supported countries to put in place the building blocks of comprehensive DRM programs. In Armenia and Kyrgyzstan, probabilistic seismic hazard assessments yielded valuable information for future planning and development. In Serbia, GFDRR’s efforts enabled a large national DRM program, with focused assistance on the water, agriculture, and environmental sectors. South Asia saw growing policy dialogue on resilience bear fruit as GFDRR’s program increased in scale. Key focus areas were hydromet information and reducing risk in populous coastal areas of India and Bangladesh. In Nepal, the government inaugurated a National Reconstruction Authority and launched a homeowner reconstruction program supported by $550 million in international funding. Both steps built upon GFDRR’s engagement in needs assessment and reconstruction planning following the April 2015 earthquake, which helped to align multiple donors behind a strong government-led process. Advancing Practice through Knowledge and Tools GFDRR’s eight Thematic Initiatives continued to enhance the impact of the Country Program by providing technical capabilities and specialized expertise at the frontier of DRM practice. During FY16, GFDRR’s Innovation Lab launched ThinkHazard!, a free and open source tool that puts scientific risk information in the hands of decision-makers globally. The tool brings together data on eight hazards: earthquakes, landslides, cyclones, volcanic eruptions, water scarcity, river floods, coastal floods, and tsunamis across 196 countries. The Safer Schools initiative developed a platform to establish a global baseline for school infrastructure. This effort has yielded information on the location of over three million schools in its initial stages. The Hydromet Initiative prepared an Assessment of the State of National Hydrological Services in Developing Countries. GFDRR released a flagship report, Building Regulation for Resilience: Managing Risks for Safer Cities, and launched pilot programs in Ethiopia, India, and Armenia to support the roll-out of effective building codes and land-use planning. The Small Island States Resilience Initiative supported more than 20 island nations in building investment pipelines and addressing technical challenges to withstand impacts of climate change. The CityStrength diagnostic tool was applied to inform dialogue that prepared a $250 million investment in urban resilience in Can Tho, Vietnam. On financial resilience, the Disaster Risk Financing and Insurance initiative rolled out a training program to more than 200 officials in 15 countries. Annual Report 2016 Bringing Resilience to Scale / xiii Partnering for Results GFDRR deepened a number of partnerships that are driving progress on specific resilience challenges. With the WMO, United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR), and the Government of France, GFDRR launched a new Climate Risk and Early Warning Systems (CREWS) initiative to finance weather stations, radar facilities, and early warning in countries where weather data is unreliable or lacking. It co-organized a Development Partners Roundtable to bring together 37 meteorological and development organizations and coordinate investments in hydromet capacity. The Understanding Risk community took a step forward as the pre-eminent platform to bring together the wide range of professionals—from across disciplinary boundaries —whose engagement is needed to solve tough resilience challenges. The fourth global Understanding Risk Forum, held in Venice, brought together 350 organizations to catalyze new partnerships and initiatives. The first-ever Understanding Risk and Finance platform was held in Addis Ababa and focused on risk financing in Africa. Resilience for a Changing World Looking ahead, GFDRR worked with its partners to identify the priority gaps and needs confronting the global resilience agenda following the adoption of the Sendai Framework, SDGs, and Paris Agreement. On climate change, GFDRR aims to significantly scale up its support to catalyzing the large-scale investments and policy changes required to achieve the national goals embedded in the Paris Agreement. Efforts will focus on addressing the critical knowledge gaps and building pipelines of effective resilience investments ahead of the Paris Agreement’s first Global Stocktaking in 2023, building on the momentum around the Paris Agreement’s ‘Nationally Determined Contributions.’ Recognizing that rapid urban growth is creating unprecedented new concentrations of risk, while presenting new opportunities for effective interventions at the municipal level, GFDRR also laid the groundwork for a scaled-up engagement on urban resilience. xiv / Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery (GFDRR) How We Work MISSION GFDRR supports Financing Windows: GFDRR finances demand-driven technical assistance through a number of implementing partners.

Without reliable and understandable information about the potential for disasters in a region, it is difficult for non-experts to incorporate DRM into development. In FY16, Innovation Lab team in partnership with the World Bank, the Bureau de Recherches Geologiques et Minieres (BRGM), Camptocamp, Deltares, and many other partners developed ThinkHazard!, which is an open-source tool providing data on eight types of natural hazards across 196 countries. Presented in a visual, user-friendly format, ThinkHazard! has already helped thousands of non-experts consider disaster risk during the design of development projects.

GFDRR’S PARTNERSHIP WITH THE EUROPEAN UNION The EU is a key partner to GFDRR as well as its single largest donor. The largest part of this collaboration focuses on improving climate and disaster resilience through various programs in the Africa, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP). Collaboration with the EU has expanded since 2014, with new programs launched to support DRM activities in South Asia and Serbia, as well as support for thematic initiatives such as disaster risk financing. Alongside GFDRR and other key partners, the EU has also played an active role in supporting the partnership of GFDRR, the World Bank, the EU, USAID and Japan, which has focused on local action to address fragility and disaster resilience. The EU and GFDRR jointly push for effective integration of DRM into the global development agenda and links among DRM, poverty reduction, and climate change adaptation. The tripartite agreement, which is a joint declaration by the EU, the UN, and the World Bank, on Post-Crisis Assessments and Recovery Planning, aims to mobilize partners and their resources to harmonize and better coordinate post-crisis frameworks. GFDRR plays a key role on coordinating action across the three actors, as well as with other international and domestic actors. These institutions have collaborated on more than 40 post-disaster assessments since 2008, and more recently, jointly issued a PDNA Guide and a Recovery Framework in 2015 at the World Conference on Disaster Risk Reduction. Annual Report 2016 Bringing Resilience to Scale / 45 Building Disaster Resilience in Sub-Saharan Africa Building Disaster Resilience to Natural Hazards in Sub-Saharan African Regions, Countries and Communities was launched at the Financing for Development Conference in Addis Ababa in July 2015. The overall objective of this initiative is to strengthen the resilience of sub-Saharan African regions. To achieve this objective, five Result Areas were identified and are being implemented by several partners, including the African Development Bank (AfDB), African Union Commission (AUC), United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR) and the World Bank. GFDRR helped coordinate the World Bank’s engagement in two of the result areas—Result 2 ($24 million) and Result 5 ($24 million).

The partnership between GFDRR and Japan expanded after the devastating 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake. As a result, in 2014, Japan launched the Japan-World Bank Program for Mainstreaming DRM in Developing Countries. The program has facilitated a number of partnerships with Japanese counterparts from government. This includes the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA), MoF, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, and Transport, and the Ministry of Education, academia and research institutes, and the private sector through platforms like the Japan Bosai Platform. Through the Japan Program, in FY16, GFDRR has fostered collaboration with JICA on the ground. This includes operational coordination and financing for resilience investments in Bangladesh and Nepal; training for better hydromet services in the Pacific; and coordinating dialogue on risk-reduction and risk-financing investments in the Philippines.

BRIDGING THE FRAGILE, CONFLICT, AND DISASTERS NEXUS Conflict in Nigeria has claimed over 20,000 lives and displaced nearly two million people since 2014. In FY16, GFDRR responded to the government’s request for an assessment of the needs associated with peacebuilding and crisis recovery. To conduct the assessment, GFDRR, in collaboration with the World Bank, organized and coordinated international experts from the European Union and the United Nations, as well as national experts from six northeastern state and federal line departments. Part of this effort included using satellite-imagery-based technology and social media analytics, making this the largest-scale assessment to use this technology, which helped to fill information gaps and validate baseline and damage data. The completed assessment has been instrumental in informing the priorities of all projects in the country.

CENTRAL AMERICA PROBABILISTIC RISK ASSESSMENT The Central America Probabilistic Risk Assessment (CAPRA) Program began in 2008 to create a free and open-source probabilistic risk assessment platform. What started with engagements in five Central American countries rapidly expanded to three Latin American countries. The project effectively built long-term institutional capacity in disaster- prone countries to develop and communicate risk information. The initiative demonstrated that disaster risks can be quantified, understood, and ultimately integrated into policies and development planning. The CAPRA program supported the construction and consolidation of a community of experts in disaster risk assessment at both a country and regional level. Local CAPRA teams, often composed of experts from government, academia, and the private sector are now building upon the generated data, acquired skills, and impetus for action to integrate risk information into policies and investment programs. These groups of experts are now working independently, expanding studies initiated with GFDRR funding and providing training to other practitioners to continue growing the community. CAPRA was a true precursor initiative. It demonstrated the potential of risk-assessment platforms and inspired a number of similar programs that have been subsequently launched. GFDRR support to the program ended in FY16, when the Universidad de los Andes in Colombia was selected to take over the full management of the CAPRA initiative and community.
