This Roadmap has been developed to align with the AHA Centre Work Plan that extends to 2020, with the immediate objectives being to help the Centre achieve faster response and access to greater resources. While it is expected that continual adjustments will need to be made to activities, budgets and timelines as implementation proceeds, it is also envisaged that the Roadmap will be extended beyond 2020 as the subsequent AHA Centre Work Plan is introduced (2020- 25) with a focus on preparing ASEAN to become a global reference in disaster management, with the capacity to also respond outside the region.
