"National reports, however, demonstrate a gradual evolution from a mindset of crisis and response to one of proactive risk reduction and safety," she said. "Countries that have or are going to establish national platforms (NPs) for disaster reduction are reporting significant and ongoing success in addressing cross cutting risk reduction issues -- more than double compared to those countries without NPs."
„Međutim, izveštaji zemalja pokazuju postepeno napredovanje od razmišljanja o krizi i reakciji na ono o proaktivnom smanjenju rizika i bezbednosti“, rekla je ona. „Zemlje koje imaju ili će uspostaviti nacionalne platforme (NP) za smanjenje katastrofa beleže značajan i konstantan uspeh u rešavanju opštih pitanja smanjenja rizika -- više nego dupli u odnosu na zemlje bez NP.“
