Ms. Silvia Helden Molfino from CAPRADE (Comité Andino de Prevención y Atención de Desastres) explained: “I have learned the way to implement these wonderful tools, SFM System and DesInventar. I take it as my priority action to share my experience in my sub-region and I will work along with my colleagues in implementing these tools”.

“The Training was very useful as we got to meet the trainers from all over the world and we asked questions to the designers of these systems. We at the Asian Disaster Preparedness Center will now support other regional organizations such as SAARC, the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation, and also ASEAN, the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, by utilizing the material and the knowledge we gained here. We will also help them to institutionalize Sendai Framework Monitoring training in South Asia and Southeast Asia respectively and hopefully we will provide practical and technical support to the countries facing challenges” said Mr. Bill Ho, Director, Strategic Planning Department
