This technical note intends to build a case for identification of gaps in existing set of requirements of technical standards for development of disaster resilient infrastructure. Landscape review of existing standards highlight the efforts undertaken by some countries in revising and updating their existing technical standards to address the challenges of disaster and climate risks as well as the current limitations in adoption of standards in infrastructure development. Further, the note emphasizes the need for international organizations as the Coalition for Disaster Resilient Infrastructure (CDRI) to facilitate multi-stakeholder collaborations for effective implementation of technical standards for building disaster resilient infrastructure. |
