ASEAN Agreement on Disaster Management and Emergency Response

The ASEAN Agreement on Disaster Management and Emergency Response is the region's central legal framework for disaster cooperation. It establishes commitments on disaster risk reduction, preparedness, response, regional assistance, standby arrangements, and cooperation among ASEAN member states. Its implementation is carried forward through successive Work Programmes; the fourth iteration, the AADMER Work Programme 2026-2030, was launched on 15 October 2025 in Phnom Penh, superseding the 2021-2025 programme.

Why it matters: AADMER shows the strength and limits of regional disaster governance in Southeast Asia. It can mobilize cooperation for emergency response, but it does not itself solve the governance problem of whether disaster-displaced populations remain included after the emergency phase. The political economy archetype is regional coordination without national absorption obligation: successive work programmes strengthen operational capability at the regional layer without binding member states to post-emergency inclusion of the displaced.
