On 2 June 2015, PHAP will host a live online consultation event in support of the the World Humanitarian Summit regional process for the Pacific region. The event will happen in anticipation of the regional meeting on 30 June to 2 July 2015 in Auckland, New Zealand.
The Pacific region is one of the most disaster-prone in the world. Five of its countries are among the top 15 most at risk of disasters globally and eight out of 20 countries in the world with the highest average annual disaster losses by GDP are Pacific island countries.
Join this panel discussion and give your input on how humanitarian action in the region can be improved to meet current and future challenges.
