The Gambia joins the Global community in marking the International Day for Disaster Risk Reduction 2025. The National Disaster Management Agency (NDMA) reaffirms its commitment to building safer and more resilient communities. This year’s theme, “Fund Resilience, Not Disasters,” is a powerful call to action: shift the narrative, shift the investment.
We encourage the government and its development partners to invest in resilience before disaster hits. Let’s empower communities with the tools, knowledge, and resources to withstand shocks and thrive because every dalasi spent on resilience saves many more in disaster response. Let’s invest in safer schools, stronger homes and informed communities before the next crisis strikes.
- It’s time to flip the script.
- Fund early warning systems
- Strengthen community preparedness
- Build climate-smart infrastructure
- Empower local leadership
