*Leave No One Behind: Global Platform 2025 Champions Inclusive Disaster Risk Reduction*
[United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNDRR) | 6th June 2025]
_"*Geneva, Switzerland, 6 June 2025* - The Global Platform for Disaster Risk Reduction 2025 placed inclusion at the center of building resilient communities, with an intentional focus on ensuring that disaster risk reduction strategies address the needs of women, persons with disabilities, and other most at-risk groups. Throughout the five-day gathering, delegates, practitioners, and community leaders demonstrated that resilience can only be achieved when no one is left behind. The platform's second key theme, "Prioritizing gender equality, accessibility and inclusion to leave no one behind," resonated across preparatory days, formal sessions, learning labs, and side events, reinforcing that while disasters affect everyone, they disproportionately impact certain groups including women, persons with disabilities, and older persons, and when these groups are empowered to lead risk reduction efforts we all benefit."_
