This Report is the third edition of the Sendai Framework Voluntary Commitments (SFVC) Synthesis and Analysis Report, showcasing stakeholders’ contributions to implementing the Sendai Framework, as submitted and published on the SFVC online platform. This report builds on continued efforts since the launch of the platform in 2018 and the publication of the first report in 2019 and the second report 2022.
It boasts an astonishing 161 published voluntary commitments (VCs), 729 participating organizations and 758 concrete deliverables. In addition, it presents a detailed analysis of the VCs including their geographical scope and distribution, contribution to the Sendai Framework priorities for action, targets and indicators, contribution to the Sustainable Development Goals, hazards covered, among others.
The Voluntary Commitments initiative reflects the motive of the Sendai Framework that, on the one hand, States have the primary responsibility for DRR, but, on the other hand, this responsibility is shared with all stakeholders.
The third edition of the Sendai Framework Voluntary Commitments (SFVC) Synthesis and Analysis Report has been launched on 2 June 2025 at the Opening of the Stakeholder Forum held during the Global Platform for Disaster Risk Reduction 2025 (GP2025).
A learning lab session is also organized during GP2025 on 6th June, Friday where stakeholders can learn more about the SFVC initiative and how to submit a VC in the online platform.
