In 2013 the Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery (GFDRR) provided financial and technical support to 80 developing countries to better identify, prepare for, and recover from natural disasters. GFDRR provides assistance across five areas: risk identification; risk reduction; disaster preparedness; financial protection for countries and people; and resilient recovery when disaster does strike. GFDRR is managed by the World Bank and funded by 21 donor partners.
