The ICH Disaster Resilience Radar operationalizes the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015–2030 (Priority 1 & Priority 4) and the 2020 UNESCO Operational Principles for Safeguarding ICH in Emergencies.
Priority 1: Understanding Risk
Indigenous warning lore (e.g., Smong, Pranata Mangsa) provides hyper-localized hazard predictive capacity.
Priority 2: Strengthening Governance
Customary water and fire institutions (Subak, Valencia Water Court) govern resource crises peacefully.
Priority 3: Resilience Investing
Vernacular architecture (Kigumi, Ivatan) provides passive, zero-energy structural resilience.
Priority 4: Build Back Better
Traditional mutual-aid and wetland systems (Baira, Gotong Royong) ensure rapid community post-disaster food recovery.
