The 2027 Europe and Central Asia Regional Platform for Disaster Risk Reduction will take place in Bucharest, Romania, from 9-11 June 2027.

The Regional Platform assesses progress on the regional EFDRR Roadmap for Disaster Risk Reduction 2021-2030 and builds capacities of authorities and stakeholders to accelerate implementation of the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030.

Held every three years, the Regional Platform has established itself as a unique vehicle to address regional disaster risk challenges, gathering the governments of 55 Member States and stakeholders across civil society and the private sector, enabling knowledge-sharing and making commitments to reducing disaster risk tangible. In 2024, the Regional Platform was hosted by the Government of Montenegro, in collaboration with the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction, and with the support of UNDP, the European Commission, and the Council of Europe.
