Special research methods of international relations, such as the method of instrumental observation, the method of studying documents, as well as a systematic approach, which made it possible to trace the prerequisites for the establishment of a system of international cooperation in the field of disaster risk reduction. The study showed that the Millennium Declaration adopted by UN member countries does not have specific provisions related to disaster risk reduction, even in countries with high risk of this issue. The Millennium Development Goals are aimed at other areas of interaction between the UN member countries. There are separate provisions that do not contradict and form the prerequisites for creating a unified concept of disaster risk reduction in the Millennium Development Goals, as enshrined in the Millennium Declaration.
