FEMA Distributes Important Survey for People with Disabilities

 

Some one billion of the world's people live with disabilities and disaster risks. These persons, by-and-large, still have no significant representation in the planning and decision-making processes to reduce these risks or build resilience.

 

Given the lack of data on disability issues generally, The UN Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR) is conducting this survey to ascertain the needs of persons living with disabilities and disasters.

 

FEMA = Federal Emergency Management Agency

 

Here is the English version of the Survey.
