Exploring an approach for monitoring the implementation of the European Union’s disaster resilience goals
An options paper on the architecture and monitoring of the European Union’s disaster resilience goals
The Decision No. 1313/2013/EU, amended in March 2019 by the Decision EU 2019/420, reinforces and enhances the Union Civil Protection Mechanism (UCPM) and, as a consequence, results in the need for the Emergency Response Coordination Centre (ERCC) to increase its monitoring, early-warning and analytical capacity. The close collaboration between DG European Civil Protection and Humanitarian Aid Operations (DG ECHO) and DG Joint Research Centre (JRC) has been recognised as a strategic pillar to build a bridge between research and operations and to translate the results of research projects into improved services to the ERCC in the context of civil protection and humanitarian aid operations.
This report aims to explore potential ideas of concept and architecture for the monitoring of the European Union’s Disaster Resilience Goals. The report focuses on three main areas: 1) the use of composite indicators approach for monitoring and review, 2) an exploration of potentially relevant indicators for resilience within the context of the disaster resilience goals and 3) demonstration of the Disaster Risk Management Knowledge Centre (DRMKC) Risk Data Hub (RDH) as a data repository for the data reported and collected to facilitate interpretation via maps and dashboards.
This report was written during the drafting stage of the European Union’s Disaster Resilience Goals in 2021 and 2022. The Commission adopted the Recommendation on the Disaster Resilience Goals on the 8th of February, 2023.
