Ps. 9, 20

However, the ASEAN region is geographically located in one of the most disaster-prone areas of the world. With ASEAN Community starting in 2015, the region is expected to experience larger movements of people between states or migration of people, increasingly rapid urbanisation, strong economic growth, and also changes in the natural and built environments. These conditions will drive considerable changes in the vulnerability and capacity of communities in ASEAN towards disaster risk.
