International Day for Disaster Risk Reduction observed in Bogura
BOGURA: The International Day for Disaster Risk Reduction-2023 was observed in the district today like elsewhere in the country in a befitting manner.
The International Day for Disaster Risk Reduction is being observed since 1989, after a call by the UN General Assembly (UNGA) for a day to promote a global culture of risk awareness and disaster reduction. In 2009, the UNGA officially designated October 13 as the date to commemorate the day.
