UN Volunteer in Kenya takes climate action through disaster response
My name is Miriam Tina and I am a UN Volunteer Disaster Risk Reduction Assistant with the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNDRR). Since joining The Horn of Africa Partnership Project for Disaster Early Warning and Response in March 2021, I have gained a lot of knowledge in disaster risk management and early warning systems.
Through UNDRR’s virtual meetings, calls, and discussions, I have expanded my network and gained a greater understanding of how Sustainable Development Goal 11 – focusing on making cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable – is implemented.
