摘 要:Three recent global agreements have been established to facilitate the implementation of global-level responsibilities to deal with disaster risk reduction(DRR),human development,and climate change adaptation(CCA)*** these agreements have a common goal of reducing social,economic,and environmental vulnerability,they have been developed by largely independent communities of *** has limited cross-fertilization despite the inherent multidimensional nature of global challenges and the considerable thematic *** argue that developing a transdisciplinary strategy that effectively integrates disciplines,approaches,and knowledge systems will lead to greater and more sustainable impacts,together with a more efficient use of financial *** approaches should be encouraged during planning of future development efforts so that risk reduction is conducted simultaneously with *** processes are central to generating contextsensitive knowledge to support decisions on CCA and DRR options that minimize trade-offs and maximize synergies and complementarities required to guide sustainable development ***,building codes together with climate and risk-smart research,education,and awareness raising,are identified as priority entry points to materialize the blending of DRR and CCA approaches and effectively reduce risk while mitigating and adapting to climate change.
