The analysis of the results by components of public policy reform in shows that the highest level of progress corresponds to "General Framework" with 26% compliance, which places it in the "incipient" range. The other components of public policy reform to improve DRM show a "low’’ level of progress with "risk identification" at 6%, "risk reduction" at 11%, "disaster preparedness" at 13%, “recovery planning” at 7%, and "financial protection” at 8%. When considering the different DRM processes in the public policy phases, shows "incipient" progress for the "central policy coordination and articulation" (28%). However, progress in the other processes are in the “low” range, with different compliance levels as follows: "definition of sectoral responsibilities" (7%), "definition of territorial responsibilities" (0%), "policy implementation" (18%), and "policy evaluation” (8%).
