As disaster risks from floods and droughts continue to increase and affect communities, the relationship between disaster risk and human development has become increasingly important. Despite international attempts to mobilize governments and relevant stakeholders to address disaster risk more holistically, disaster risk reduction and human development remain detached from each other in many countries and communities. This paper explores government practitioners' views on an integration of disaster risk reduction and human development in the context of floods and droughts in Canada and Australia. The paper draws from a comparative case study analysis involving two Delphi studies and semi-structured interviews with Canadian and Australian practitioners at local, provincial/state, and federal levels. The findings from this study show a dominant view among participants that disaster risk reduction requires a broader engagement with human development systems that is adaptable to local contexts. This includes considerations - such as poverty, health and well-being, climate action, social equity and equality, and human agency - as well as mainstreaming disaster risk information in human development processes and activities. The research identifies mechanisms perceived as being critical to developing integrated approaches, including in effective legislation, policy frameworks, evidence-based decision-making, and cross-sector collaboration. While an integrated approach to disaster risk reduction and human development challenges the political and programmatic complexities for flood and drought risk reduction, approaches to disaster risk governance that reflect the capacities and needs of individuals and vulnerable populations must be developed.
