Ecosystem-based disaster risk reduction


Ecosystem-based disaster risk reduction is based on disaster risk reduction and the purpose of Eco-DDR is to prevent and reduce disasters by utilizing ecosystems. Eco-DDR is to maintain ecosystems and ecosystem services, to use them as buffer zones and buffers for dangerous natural phenomena, and to provide humans and local communities with functions such as food and water supply. Eco-DDR is closely related to Ecosystem-based adaptation, approaches to adapt to climate change. They all involve the management of ecosystems and their services to reduce the vulnerability of human communities to the impacts of climate change.
