The All India Disaster Mitigation Institute (AIDMI) supports the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through its locally rooted, community-based work on disaster risk reduction, climate resilience, and humanitarian response.

AIDMI works to ensure that risk reduction and recovery efforts leave no one behind while contributing to India’s commitment to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
