OFDA is offering this grant to support disaster risk reduction programs aimed at increasing resilience and strengthening a culture of DRR among the most vulnerable coastal communities across Asia. This grant is specifically for the purpose of fostering initiatives that directly address the recurrent impact of coastal hazards in regions significantly affected socio-economically, ensuring the protection of lives and livelihoods. Proposed activities should be implemented in countries and areas where coastal hazards have a direct and recurrent impact, affecting a substantial number of people. The overall goal is to mitigate the significant socio-economic effects of these hazards, thereby reducing community vulnerability and enhancing preparedness against natural disasters throughout the Asian continent.
