Analyzing Governance Strategies on Disaster Risk Reduction In Developed And Developing Countries Based on Sendai Framework

The Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction (SFDRR) has influenced the Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) policies and practices in 189 countries across the globe. The SFDRR is a continuation of the Hyogo Framework which focused on practices for increasing the society’s resilience against disasters. This study aims to analyze DRR policies in developed and developing countries which refer to the SFDRR. The research method in this article uses the SALSA (Search, Appraisal, Synthesis, and Analysis) method alongside the qualitative systematic review approach. The countries that have implemented the SFDRR are developed and developing countries that have experienced grave disasters and massive losses and are located in areas that are prone to grave disasters alongside the impacts of climate change. The SFDRR changed the paradigm within disaster response from reactive to proactive. Besides that, the DRR policies that are influenced by the SFDRR have succeeded in reducing the number of losses caused by disasters. This has greatly benefited developing countries with low income and limited financial and human resources. However, both developed and developing countries still find some challenges and keep searching for effective strategies for DRR actions.
