How does the Global Bank Disaster Risk Reduction and Reconstruction Fund – An Umbrella Trust Fund get involved in a disaster?

Once a disaster has occurred, and the Government has declared a state of emergency, the Government will evaluate the recovery capabilities of the state/province and local governments. If it is determined that the damage is beyond their recovery capability, the governor will normally send a request letter to the Global Bank Disaster Risk Reduction and Reconstruction Fund – An Umbrella Trust Fund (the “Trust Fund,” “GB DRRRF,” or “DRRRF”), directed through the Regional Director of the appropriate Global Bank region. The DRRRF Steering Committee then decides whether or not to the DRRRF should get involved.

After a DRRRF Steering Committee decision has been made, the Global Bank Disaster Risk Reduction and Reconstruction Fund – An Umbrella Trust Fund will designate the area eligible for assistance and announce the types of assistance available.
