國際減災日的設立可以追溯到1989年。此前，為促進(jìn)風(fēng)險意識及減災的全球性文化，聯(lián)大倡議設立一個(gè)國際日?，F在，每年10月13日舉行的國際減災日紀念活動(dòng)，旨在贊賞全世界民眾和社區為減少遭受災害風(fēng)險做出的努力，并提高他們對所面臨風(fēng)險的重要性的認識。

2019年主題繼續作為“仙臺七項”活動(dòng)的一部分，以《仙臺框架》的七個(gè)具體目標為中心。今年將重點(diǎn)關(guān)注《仙臺框架》的具體目標 (d)：“到2030年，通過(guò)提高抗災能力等辦法，大幅減少災害對重要基礎設施的損害以及基礎服務(wù)包括衛生和教育設施的中斷?！?/p>

International Day for Disaster Risk Reduction (IDDRR) began in 1989, after a call by the United Nations General Assembly for a day to promote a global culture of risk-awareness and disaster reduction.

Held every 13 October, the day celebrates how people and communities around the world are reducing their exposure to disasters and raising awareness about the importance of reining in the risks that they face.

The 2019 edition continues as part of the "Sendai Seven" campaign, centred on the seven targets of the Sendai Framework.

This year will focus on Target (d) of the Sendai Framework, reduce disaster damage to critical infrastructure and disruption of basic services.
