    Este documento resume el proyecto de la FAO TCP RLA 3804 en América Latina, que buscaba identificar la vinculación entre las políticas gubernamentales, la protección social y las acciones anticipatorias en el territorio. Los estudios realizados en Colombia, Nicaragua y República Dominicana identificaron oportunidades y brechas en esta vinculación, especialmente para comunidades rurales vulnerables, considerando aspectos de género y las necesidades de grupos indígenas y afrodescendientes. El proyecto aportó valiosas lecciones al campo de la gestión del riesgo de desastres.
