About CDRM
Mandate The Committee on Disaster Risk Management (CDRM) was established
at the WFEO General Assembly held in December 2009, Kuwait,
having as role minimizing the potential damage and risk to human life
and damage through the proper application of technology.

The CDRM shall support the WFEO and the engineering profession
worldwide by encouraging and supporting sustainable engineering
approaches that reduce disaster risk. The CDRM focuses on
contributing to the implementation of prevention and reduction
measures upon the effects of disasters, implementation of the global
disaster risk reduction initiative, Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk
Reduction 2015-2030.

Who CDRM is a WFEO standing technical committee dedicated entirely to

disaster risk management. The CDRM is headed by a Chair, during its
trajectory this committee has had two chairs: Dr. Yumio Ishii (2009-
2013) and Dr. Toshimitsu Komatsu (2014-2017). Dr. Jorge Alva will
be the CDRM’s third chair from 2018 to 2021.

CDRM mobilizes and coordinates a network composed of engineers

linked to the public, private and academic sectors from different parts
of the world.

What CDRM coordinates international engineering efforts on disaster risk

management through subcommittees. CDRM started with two
subcommittees: Water-related Disaster Risk Management (WDRM)
and Earthquake-related Disaster Risk Management (EQDRM). In 2013,
the subcommittee on capacity building for Natural Disaster Risk
Management (CBNDRM) was established.

These subcommittees will have a new denomination from 2018: water

and climate-related Disaster Risk Management (WCDRM), earthquake
and tsunami-related Disaster Risk Management (ETDRM), and
capacity building-for Disaster Risk Management (CBDRM).

Where CDRM executes its mandate through its headquarters in the Peruvian
Association of Professional Engineers based in Lima (Peru) for a term
of four years.

It should be mentioned that the CDRM was hosted by the Science

Council of Japan and the Japan Federation of Engineering
Societies (JFES) for a period of eight years.

WFEO – CDRM, STRATEGIC PLAN (2018-2021)
 WFEO STANDING TECHNICAL COMMITTEE
ON DISASTER RISK MANAGEMENT

INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND

The so-called natural disasters have caused more than seven trillion US dollars in
economic damage and eight million deaths, since the start of the 20th century.
Earthquakes, storms, volcanic eruptions, landslides and floods of diverse origin have
hit humankind and its development infrastructure. Within this framework,
engineering appears as a key set of disciplines using updated scientific knowledge to
address the risk that such natural phenomena could become disastrous events.
The WFEO Committee on Disaster Risk Management is a motivated team of engineers
that work voluntarily for the development and strengthening of a worldwide network
of scientists and engineers, who deal with hazardous natural phenomena, in order to
reinforce the various processes of Disaster Risk Management.

This Strategic Plan used as its starting point the Strategic Plan 2013-2017 of the
Science Council of Japan. The Plan review validated continued engineering
engagement to create safer, sustainable and prosperous societies. The review further
recommended that CDRM should contribute to implementation of prevention and
reduction measures upon the effects of disasters, and other processes aiming to avoid
loss of life and property, and to reduce human suffering due to the damaging effects
of natural hazards. Thus, the CDRM Strategic Framework is developed to support
through engineering the implementation of the global disaster risk reduction
initiative, Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030.

The Strategic Framework sets directions by outlining operating principles, objectives,

expected results, results indicators, outputs and main activities to achieve its vision
for the next four years. The Plan will be updated annually based on the progress
made and to respond to changes in the environment.

Disaster Risk Management (ETDRM), and Capacity Building for Disaster Risk
Management (CBDRM), in order to deal with related types of disasters.

The WCDRM subcommittee

Extreme natural phenomena related to water, with the possibility of causing disasters
such as floods, landslides, storms and droughts, are associated with the climate;
there are also extreme weather behaviors such as frost that can cause disasters. For
this reason and in order to integrate the study of disaster risk related to water with
its origin and its possible intensification by climate change, the WCDRM members are
presenting a proposal to include Climate in the name of this subcommittee.
The main objective of this subcommittee is to contribute to reduce disaster risks and
to increase population resilience in the event of extreme weather events.

Objectives:
 Facilitate records/information for identifying (including geographical location)
and characterizing natural and anthropogenic phenomena that may increase
threats or vulnerabilities associated with water-related disasters;
 Facilitate records/information about Early Warning Systems for assessment,
adaptation and vulnerability to climate change;
 Facilitate data records to local and regional authorities for timely decision-
making in water and climate-related disaster risk management;
 Strengthen a water culture to improve production habits, the use of efficient
technologies, and provide a legal framework for environmental issues at the
level of catchment areas and urban zones.
Goals:
 Obtain risk zoning maps of potential disasters related to water and climate
change that will form part of a Global Risk Map of disasters for the use of
authorities and their respective mitigation;
 Obtain reports of Early Warning Systems for assessment, adaptation and
vulnerability to the climate, for the use of the authorities in the mitigation of
damage;
 Strengthen mechanisms and develop strategies to ensure the use of the
information gathered by decision-makers;
