abstract="This article summarizes the proceedings of the four-session meeting (webinar)  conducted by the Alliance of International Science Organizations on Disaster Risk  Reduction (ANSO-DRR) on 18 May 2020. ANSO-DRR is an international, nonprofit and  nongovernmental scientific alliance bringing together academies of science, research  organizations and universities which share a strong interest in disaster risk  reduction in the regions along the land-based and maritime routes of the Belt and  Road Initiative. ANSO-DRR convenes an annual meeting to review its work progress and  discuss its scientific programs. The first session was the opening statements and  was followed by the introduction and updates on ANSO-DRR in the second session. The  third session was the depiction of the big picture of ANSO, the umbrella  organization of ANSO-DRR, led by the Assistant Executive Director of ANSO, while the  fourth session was a presentation of perspectives on the strategic development of  ANSO-DRR. One of ANSO-DRR's key strategies is to enhance disaster mitigation and  response through multidisciplinary cooperation among disaster and healthcare  sciences (i.e., health emergency and disaster risk management (Health-EDRM)). It  aims to enhance DRR efforts by performing as an instrument in connecting people  along the Belt and Road regions, focusing on DRR resource and database development,  involving higher education institutions in DRR efforts and increasing disaster  resilience in built infrastructures.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
