The objective of this analysis is to
assess the state of progress of risk management in Colombia
and propose recommendations to help the Government set
public policy in the short-and long-term. For this reason,
the study sought to: (i) establish the risk and impact of
disasters in recent decades, (ii) identify legal,
institutional and conceptual themes in the country, (iii)
review the state and evolution of investment in risk
management, (iv) analyze the role of local authorities and
industry in the risk management, and (v) identify gaps and
challenges in the definition of the responsibilities of
public and private sectors. This report, a product of joint
work with multiple public and private agencies, is not
limited in analyzing the causes of risk and measuring their
growth. By contrast, it elaborates on the institutional
developments in the risk management at different levels of
government and how the topic is incorporated in the
territory of public administration and industry. It further
states the great opportunities for joint risk management
instruments of disaster planning, investment, existing
monitoring and control, and shows the need to define public
and private responsibility as part of a reduction strategy
of the state's fiscal vulnerability. In conclusion, the
study shows that if the country does not want to see
economic growth accompanied by more frequent and larger
losses it will be essential to have a radical change in
development policies and land management practices and
industry. Therefore, the present document defines a set of
recommendations to improve management of disaster risk at
the level of state policy, showing that the priority to
reduce the impact of disasters is based on the task of
improving conditions of use and occupation of territory. |
