Purpose The paper proposes a framework that could enhance Disaster Resilience Policy Coherence (DRPC) in the SADC region, strengthening decision-making processes and fostering synergies across sectors to support integrated and sustainable development. Design/methodology/approach A mixed-methods research design was applied to the study, with data collected through key informant interviews (KIIs), a survey questionnaire, and content analysis of key documents relating to disaster resilience. A meta-framework approach to framework development was utilized. The study involved 45 Key Informants from 11 SADC Member States (MS), 88 online survey respondents, and 12international and regional disaster resilience strategies and plans. Findings The findings informed the development of a framework to enhance DRPC to provide principles and guidelines that will help shape how the SADC Secretariat and MS approach disaster resilience and sustainable development. The proposed framework comprises four core components, namely a global framework for disaster resilience and sustainable development; key enablers for DRPC; disaster resilience (DR) contexts and disaster resilience and sustainable development outcomes. Originality/value The proposed framework stems from the application of disaster resilience policy coherence research in the context of the SADC region. It draws on both established international DRPC frameworks and the research’s unique insights and findings. The proposed SADC DRPC framework presents a new and unique structure that clarifies key concepts, variables, relationships and assumptions, facilitating easy comprehension and applicability at the regional level
