The full form of UNISDR is United Nations International Strategy for Disaster Reduction.

The United Nations International Strategy for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR) is a strategic framework, adopted by United Nations Member States in 2000, aiming to guide and coordinate the efforts of a wide range of partners to:

• Achieve substantive reduction in disaster losses
• Build resilient nations and communities as an essential condition for sustainable development.

UNISDR works with numerous organizations, States, intergovernmental and non-governmental organizations, financial institutions, technical bodies, the private sector and civil society, which work together and share information to reduce disaster risk. The UN provides the secretariat of the strategy.

As a representative of the private sector and a member of the Disaster Risk Reduction Private Sector Partnership (DRR-PSP), PATA has committed to promote and develop public-private partnership, leverage its expertise and strengths, foster a collaborative environment, and support the development and strengthening of regulations, policies, and programmes that enhance disaster risk reduction and improve destination resilience.
