When Disaster Strikes, The Private Sector Can Make All The Difference Communities face increasing risks from disasters and disruptions, but they cannot face these challenges alone.

From supporting small businesses to developing community-based early warning systems, business involvement can make the difference between recovery and collapse.

This webinar will explore how private sector organisations can contribute to disaster risk reduction (DRR) and enhance the resilience of communities. A gentle reminder that webinar attendees must register - please use the MS Teams link provided.

Date: 22nd September 2025, 10.00am-11.30am (UK time) Our speaker: Francis Hoets, CEO, Disaster Risk Management NPC, South Africa Register: via the MS Teams link
