This occurs when a significant portion of a population is killed or otherwise prevented from reproducing due to the disaster, leading to a decrease in genetic diversity and potentially increased vulnerability to future events.
UNOR, or the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction, is a UN agency focused on promoting disaster risk reduction strategies and enhancing resilience to disasters globally. Its primary objectives include supporting countries in implementing the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction and fostering collaboration among governments, organizations, and communities to mitigate the impacts of natural hazards.
