Plan is part of Children in a Changing Climate - a coalition of leading child-focused research, development and humanitarian organisations each with a commitment to share knowledge, coordinate activities and work with children as agents of change.

This report contributes to building an improved understanding of how different intensities of disaster affect children in different contexts and the structures needed to realise the benefits of engaging children as active citizens and agents of change at the sub-national and local scale.

This improved knowledge is vital in order to ensure that development and risk reduction programmes address children’s specific vulnerabilities and bolster their resilience to the increasing number of disasters.
