Building and Enabling Disaster Resilience of Coastal Communities (BEDROC) is the successor to the Nagapattinam NGO Co-ordination and Resource Centre (NCRC), the very successful multi-stakeholder co-ordination and programme implementation platform set up after the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami. BEDROC was set up as a legal entity to continue the longer-term activities initiated by the NCRC, which, as scheduled, was discontinued in Jan 2008, three years after the tsunami.

Homepage of the UNDP – GoI Post-Tsunami Environment Initiative Project .

Following their relief assistance, the UN system developed a Post-Tsunami Recovery Framework. The Framework aids the Government of India in its post-tsunami rehabilitation and reconstruction efforts. ‘Environment Sustainability’ is a critical component of the UN Recovery Framework. This component is operationalised through this project titled ‘UNDP – GOI Post-Tsunami Environment Initiative’. This project is jointly executed by the Nature Conservation Foundation (NCF), Mysore, the Ashoka Trust for Research in Ecology and the Environment (ATREE), Bangalore and the Citizen consumer and civic Action Group (CAG), Chennai.

The project aims to understand coastal vulnerability and resilience in the face of such natural disasters within the Indian context, establish participatory ecological and community monitoring systems, critically analyse developmental policy with respect to coast, and develop management models for key sites along the coast.
