ABSTRACT As approaches to international disaster risk reduction have changed, the international community's responses have evolved since the issue arose in 1990 with the United Nations International Decade for Disaster Risk Reduction (henceforth DRR). Canada has been a strong participant in these efforts, most recently through the Sendai Framework, designed to guide the world’s responses to disaster from 2015 to 2030. A key shift of the Sendai Framework is a move toward “disaster risk governance” rather than disaster management, suggesting a move away from relief-based governance and assistance models and toward resilience-based models. As DRR becomes more integrated into the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), it will theoretically blur the boundary between “relief” and “development” activities and policies. This paper will analyze the implications of this blurring for Canada’s international disaster assistance policies, and include some comparison with domestic disaster response policies. In the process, the work will review the history, development, and outcomes of Canada’s involvement in the global DRR process, with particular focus on Canada’s contribution to resilience-based governance. It will evaluate Canada’s progress toward the support of resilience-based governance as demonstrated through recent examples of disaster assistance responses, policies and programs.

韧性治理：加拿大和全球减少灾害风险

摘要 随着国际减少灾害风险方法的变化，自 1990 年联合国国际减少灾害风险十年（以下简称 DRR）出现该问题以来，国际社会的应对措施也发生了变化。加拿大一直是这些努力的有力参与者，最近通过仙台框架，旨在指导世界从 2015 年到 2030 年的灾害应对。仙台框架的一个关键转变是朝着“灾害风险治理”而不是灾害管理迈进，建议从基于救济的治理和援助模型转向基于复原力的模型。随着 DRR 越来越多地融入可持续发展目标 (SDG)，理论上它将模糊“救济”和“发展”活动和政策之间的界限。本文将分析这种模糊对加拿大国际灾难援助政策的影响，并包括与国内灾难响应政策的一些比较。在此过程中，工作将审查加拿大参与全球 DRR 进程的历史、发展和成果，特别关注加拿大对基于复原力的治理的贡献。它将评估加拿大在支持基于复原力的治理方面取得的进展，正如最近的灾害援助响应、政策和计划的例子所证明的那样。特别关注加拿大对基于复原力的治理的贡献。它将评估加拿大在支持基于复原力的治理方面取得的进展，正如最近的灾害援助响应、政策和计划的例子所证明的那样。特别关注加拿大对基于复原力的治理的贡献。它将评估加拿大在支持基于复原力的治理方面取得的进展，正如最近的灾害援助响应、政策和计划的例子所证明的那样。
