今回の世界防災研究所サミットは、国際防災研究フォーラム(仮称)の設立記念イベン
トとして位置付け、策定後 10 年間を実施期間とする総合的な防災研究のロードマップを作
り上げることを目指した活動を推進していくための組織基盤を形成することを目的として
います。この目的を達成するために、この会議では以下のような目標を設定しています。
(1)
過去10年間の研究成果の評価
(2)
ニーズと学術研究とのギャップの同定
(3)
今後10年間の研究上のチャレンジと期待される成果の共有化
(4)
災害リスク軽減のための学術研究のロードマップの共同作成
(5)
学術研究のロードマップ等の成果のアピール

After a successful 1st Global Summit in 2011, we would like to invite you (or
someone from your organization) to attend the “Second Global Summit of
Research Institutes for Disaster Risk Reduction: Development of a Research
Road Map for the Next Decade” which will be held at Kihada Hall, Uji Campus,
Kyoto University on 19-20 March 2015. This event is being organized by the
Disaster Prevention Research Institute (DPRI) of Kyoto University in
collaboration with the Natural Disaster Research Council (NDRC), Japan.
The 1st Global Summit was held in Kyoto on 24-25 November 2011 with the
participation of representatives from 25 research institutes from 11 countries to
reflect on the challenges posed by disaster risks, explore new paradigms for DRR,
and discuss new approaches to disaster mitigation and risk management.
The
two-day event involved workshop style discussions and resulted in the drafting
of a Resolution
(http://www.dpri.kyoto-u.ac.jp/gndw/resolution/2011/summit-resolution_2011112
5.pdf). One of the key points in the resolution was the establishment of an
alliance of the disaster research institutes, now called the the Global Alliance of
Disaster Research Institutes (GADRI). The purpose of the GADRI is to move
forward the recommendations of the Resolution, and in particular to share
knowledge, experiences and ideas on disaster research in order to contribute to
enhancing disaster risk reduction and disaster resilience.
This year on the occasion of the 2nd World Conference on Disaster Risk
Reduction, we would like to discuss the research goals and contribution that the
disaster research institutes can make to disaster risk reduction in the next
decade. The evaluation of the results of the HFA has pointed out the need to
better link disaster risk reduction, development and climate change adaptation
strategies towards a common goal of harmonious living with nature and our
planet.
Many challenges remain as the continued large-scale disasters and
losses from around the world show. The 2nd Global Summit represents an
invitation and an opportunity for all research organizations involved in disaster
risk reduction (DRR) to reflect on these and future challenges and how we may
tackle them through scientific and applied research in the coming decade.
With this in mind the Summit goals are:

To evaluate research achievements in the past 10 years

To identify research gaps and needs

To imagine research challenges and possible outcomes in the next decade

To use the occasion of the 2nd World Summit to formalize the establishment
of the Global Alliance of Disaster Research Institutes

To propose a Research Road Map on DRR for the next decade

To publish, distribute, and promote the findings and recommendations of
the Summit to academic research organizations, government agencies and
international organizations.
