SDGs LINKAGES
The resource can help collections-based institutions promote public information and education linked to tsunami awareness. This supports a number of SDG targets, including 1.5 (protect the vulnerable from environmental shocks and disasters), 3.D (early warning for health risks), 4.7 (Education for Sustainable Development), 11.5 (reduce the impact of disasters), 11.B (adopt Disaster Risk Reduction policies and plans), 13.1 (enhance adaptive capacity for climate change and natural disasters in all countries), 13.3 (promote education and information for climate action).

-
Our Collections Matter indicators:
- Number of collecting programmes that aim to build resilience to climate-related events and other shocks and disasters, for example by forming collections that can contribute to related educational and research programmes.
- Number of educational programmes drawing on collections that incorporate resilience perspectives.
- Number of targeted programmes drawing on collections that are aimed at vulnerable groups, to build their resilience to climate-related and other shocks and disasters.
- Number of research programmes drawing on collections that are aimed at building resilience to climate-related and other shocks and disasters.
- Strengthen the resilience of employees, communities and suppliers by paying at a minimum the living wage and offering insurance to employees and their families, such as accident insurance; and by paying fair prices to all suppliers.
-
Our Collections Matter indicators:
