International Disaster and Risk Conference (IDRC), a world conference on integrated risk management, has been held every two years in Davos, Switzerland since 2006. Academic experts, private corporations, United Nations organizations, NGOs and other related organizations gather and discuss a wide range of risks. It is normally held for 5 days with approximately 500 to 800 participants. In 2015, IDRC concluded an agreement with IRIDeS, Tohoku University, so that “World Bosai Forum/ IDRC 2017 in Sendai” will be held in the year IDRC is not held in Davos. IDRC and World Bosai Forum will cooperate with each other in conference planning and PR.

About the logo

  • Designer: Ms. Yu Sato
    (Designer of UN World Conference on Disaster Risk Reduction 2015, Sendai, Japan)
  • The logo is designed in the image of people gathering and creating together.
  • World Bosai Forum offers a global platform to share and disseminate various Bosai (disaster risk reduction) experiences and technologies. Thus this logo also expresses the outward- looking nature of the forum, imaging WBF knowledge conveyed to the world in all directions.
  • Four colors of logo stand for the following:
    1. four priorities for action of the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030, and
    2. four predicted WBF participants: industries, governments, academia and citizens.
