Dutch Disaster Risk Reduction and Surge Support (DRRS)

The Netherlands Enterprise Agency (RVO) provides water-related experts through its Dutch Disaster Risk Reduction and Surge Support (DRRS) programme.

DRRS aims to prevent and reduce the impact of water and climate-related disasters worldwide and increase the resilience of affected areas and populations.

The DRRS programme operates in all disaster management cycle phases: mitigation, preparedness, response and recovery. Foreign governments and humanitarian actors can request support. Every intervention is tailor-made. DRRS can assemble a team with relevant stakeholders and (local) experts based on the challenge and expertise needed.
