This year’s expo will welcome participants from 44 countries across the globe including member states of Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO), South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) and partner countries of NDMA.

PIEDRR 2024 aims to serve as a pivotal global platform to achieve key objectives, including the establishment of collaborative partnerships to support joint initiatives and research worldwide, and knowledge exchange among global experts, practitioners, and policymakers.

It will act as a global platform for deliberation on anticipatory actions and practical recommendations for a safer and more resilient world from poly-disasters.

The expo will feature a diverse array of participants, including international and bilateral partners, high-level dignitaries, government officials, policy makers, experts, emergency responders, global academia, and think tanks through capacity displays, seminars, group discussions, ignite sessions and global simulation exercises.

PIEDRR 2024 promises to be a dynamic and impactful gathering, uniting stakeholders from around the world to collaborate, innovate, and spearhead positive advancements in disaster risk reduction. We look forward to your participation in this significant event.
