Description: This chapter draws several lessons learned from the previous chapters. It also discusses the policy implications of governance approaches to mitigate disaster risk and manage pre- and post-disaster processes in order to reduce both economic and human loss caused by disasters. The authors of these chapters consistently point out that the way disaster risk management strategies and frameworks are formulated and implemented, the coordination among stakeholders in all the three sectors (government, the private sector and civil society) and the availability of resources have consequences to disaster risk reduction and other associated issues.
