💥 What's the Big Deal:
In the Pacific, combating inequality🤝 is at the heart of disaster risk reduction, and unfortunately, recent events globally have shown the ruinous effects of manmade disasters to match those made by nature. 🫂 This International Day is about recognizing the intricate relationship 🌀 between disasters, poverty, and inequality. 🌊 It's not just about reducing the impact of disasters but breaking the cycle that perpetuates inequality. 📣 Join the conversation, spread the word, and work together for a more resilient and equal Pacific.
