IFRC

International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies: CRED and the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) have a partnership since 1993 for the World Disaster Report, whereby CRED prepares the statistical data tables and analyses on an annual basis. CRED provides each year, based on the OFDA/CRED EM-DAT database, key trends and statistics on natural and technological disasters: number of events, number of killed, affected and estimated damages. It results in 13 tables included in the statistical annex of the WDR. (Website).

USAID

U.S. Agency for International Development: CRED has a collaboration with the Office of Foreign Disaster Assistance (OFDA) of the US Agency for International Development Development (USAID) since 1999. The aim was to complete the EM-DAT database and validate its content. It was also decided that the database would be placed on a dedicated website on the internet with free access to provide users with a reliable source of disaster-data covering the entire globe. Since 1999, OFDA is funding the EM-DAT projects including the maintenance and enhancement of the database and services but also the development of other related activities as the creation of a Regional Disaster Information System (RE-DAT) or the creation of a Disaster Database Portal.
