An important insight from our #UR24 session "Safer Together: How Disability Inclusive DRM Protects Lives and Builds Resilience": we must build resilient communities where everyone’s voice is heard 🌟 Learn more about our work: gfdrr.org/en/inclusive-d… #InclusiveResilience

There were six plenaries, each featuring experts taking the stage. Panels of top experts from distant locations and a variety of backgrounds presided in front of an audience from institutions all over the world. #UR24

#UR24 had a closing ceremony. The celebration marked a grand pinnacle of networking (featuring karaoke as well). Starting the following day, we have focus days. While UR24 continues, the ceremony brings a bit of closure to the first part. (📷 members of World Bank Tokyo DRM Hub)

The booths area continued to be filled with lively discussions and networking. People learned about each other's work, shared their own activities, and got to know one another. Here is the booth of the World Bank Tokyo DRM Hub. #UR24

Day 4 of #UR24 features focus days that serve as platforms for extended training, meetings and intense networking through close-knit activities. Tradition, yes; but it doesn’t always mean being too formal – UR is a place of enjoyment and enrichment.

Had the best week at #UR24 w/ this fantastic group from across Risk-informed Early Action Partnership. So much stimulating conversations, insightful discussions & just a brilliant group of awesome individuals. So energised & feel honoured to get to work with them. They're not bad at karaoke either!
