The National Risk Management Policy is a long-term planning instrument to guide actions of the State, the private sector, and civil society, aligning them with common purposes towards a "country development" project. It lays down the conceptual foundations and general guidelines to guide the successive development of the National Risk Management Plan for 15 years, in five-year periods: 2016-2020, 2021-2025, and 2026-2030, while also establishing how to organize their implementation to ensure oversight of actions and measurement of results.
