Meet The Team

Its influence and reach is considerably enhanced through collaboration with national-level networks, global networks, regional multilateral stakeholders and UN agencies.

ADRRN strikes a balance between informality and a strong effective governance system. Regular election proceedings and a functional secretariat serve as a strong backbone to our work.

Executive Committee

The ADRRN Executive Committee represents a wide-range of leaders from various network members who directs, lead, advise and move the resilience agenda forward within and beyond the network across the Asia-Pacific region and globally.

“The role of ADRRN in the current Disaster Risk Reduction space is to create a resilience movement in which the very people who are affected by disasters drive their own resilience journey, and support systems are created around that. Resilience in our region is not something externally induced, but something that stems and grows in each community. ADRRN will foster capacity sharing to leverage significant capacities in the region, so that our region will become safer and more resilient.”

— Takeshi Komino, ADRRN Chairperson

Secretariat

The ADRRN Secretariat serves as a support entity to the network and reports to the Executive Committee. The Secretariat is based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and Kathmandu, Nepal. The Secretariat works under the direction of the Executive Committee. It is led and managed by the Coordinator who is directly responsible to the Executive Committee.
