11月14日，國際博協(xié)(ICOM)宣布成立新的國際委員會：ICOM-博物館防災減災國際委員會(ICOM-DRMC)。這也意味著ICOM-DRMC已成為國際博協(xié)第32個國際專業(yè)委員會。

　　在過去的幾十年里，我們目睹了由于各種人為和自然災害造成的博物館和收藏品的嚴重損失。雖然我們始終需要改進(某個單體的)博物館的災害規(guī)劃，但我們也必須努力將博物館納入國家和國際減少災害風險框架。

　　聯(lián)合國減少災害風險辦公室(UNISDR)和《2015-2030年仙臺減少災害風險框架》(Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030)確認：保護文化遺產有助于創(chuàng)建更具抗災能力的社區(qū)，也有助于加快(災區(qū))恢復速度。各個學科的博物館專業(yè)人員都可以發(fā)揮重要作用。

　　作為一個國際委員會，ICOM防災博物館委員會向所有對防災博物館和社區(qū)感興趣的ICOM成員開放，從而擴大其范圍。目的旨在為參與文化災害風險管理新興學科的成員創(chuàng)造一個新的空間，加強ICOM委員會之間的跨學科合作，并提高ICOM與國際災害風險管理界的知名度和合作。

　　據了解，ICOM-災難復原博物館委員會(ICOM-DRMC)是在京都ICOM第25屆大會之際初步發(fā)起成立的，旨在為全球博物館搭建有關應急準備和災難響應的有效性、啟發(fā)性、工具性和合作性的跨學科平臺。(上文完，由博物館頭條翻譯組翻譯，感謝中國博協(xié)對翻譯此文的幫助)

　　ICOM is pleasedto announce the creation of a new International Committee: the ICOM-DisasterResilient Museums Committee.

　　In the past fewdecades we have witnessed terrible losses of museums and collections due tohuman-caused and natural disasters. While we always need to improve disasterplanning for museums, we must also work to integrate museums into national andinternational disaster risk reduction frameworks. The UN Office of Disaster RiskReduction (UNISDR) and the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction2015-2030 acknowledge that preserving cultural heritage helps create moredisaster resilient communities and helps speed recovery. Museum professionalsof all disciplines have an important role to play.

　　As anInternational Committee, the ICOM Disaster Resilient Museums Committee will nowbe open to all ICOM members interested in disaster resilient museums andcommunities, greatly magnifying its outreach. The aim is to create a new spacefor members engaged in the emerging discipline of cultural disaster riskmanagement, increase interdisciplinary collaboration across ICOM committees,and raise ICOM’s profile and collaboration with the international disaster riskmanagement community.

　　TheICOM-Disaster Resilient Museums Committee (ICOM-DRMC) has been created on theoccasion of the ICOM 25th General Conference in Kyoto to serve museums globallyas an effective, inspiring, instrumental, and cooperative interdisciplinaryplatform about emergency preparedness and disaster response.
