March 2015 is the goal for implementation of the Hyogo Framework for Action 2005-2015 (HFA) which was adopted at the World Conference on Disaster Reduction (WCDR) held in Kobe, Hyogo in 2005. Taking this opportunity, the Asian Conference on Disaster Reduction 2015 (ACDR2015) will be held on 15 March 2015 in Sendai, Japan, on the occasion of the Third UN World Conference on Disaster Risk Reduction (WCDRR), 14-18 March 2015. The ACDR2015 will be held as a public forum of the WCDRR in order to confirm achievements of HFA, to clarify the core actions on improving capacity for disaster risk reduction in post-HFA, and to provide an opportunity to discuss our future activities. Sentinel Asia Step3 introduction leaflet and its Case studies were distributed at ACDR2015 in the TKP Garden City Sendai-Kotodai.
