Connecting
Government, Corporate Sector and the Communities..
We are dedicated in our efforts for disaster reduction
and shall continue working in this direction.
In furtherance of this effort, we are committed
to expanded collaboration among different stakeholders.
While
we recognize the primary responsibility of the
governments in disaster reduction, we realize
that considering the nature of disasters, their
frequency and their complexity, the involvement
of corporate sector in disaster reduction makes
good business sense. The development of suitable
institutional mechanisms with sound legal framework
is necessary to facilitate Public-Private Partnership.
The corporate sector engagement is essential for
the success of disaster reduction efforts.
The
involvement of corporate sector in disaster reduction
is a sound business proposition and also enables
the corporate sector to demonstrate commitment
to humanitarian concerns as responsible corporate
citizens.
The
information and communication technologies (ICT)
have a critical role in facilitating disaster
management in a transparent and effective manner.
The corporate sector has a key role in facilitating
the use of ICT for disaster management.
We
resolve and propose to engage in a sustained process
for the establishment of Platform for
Public-Private Partnership (P4PPP) and
the development of following products:
| 1. |
|
Checklist and Guidelines for Chief Executive
Officers (CEOs) |
| 2. |
|
Diary of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs)
for corporate executives on disaster preparedness
and response |
| 3. |
|
Reference Manual on disaster management for
the corporate sector |
| 4. |
|
Corporate-Community Interface (CCI) handbook
on disaster and environmental management |
We
further propose to engage into a process of sharing,
dissemination and application of these documents
through the Platform for Public-Private Partnership
(P4PPP).
