Global Climate Risk Index Ranks 188 Countries by Vulnerability and Access to Finance

"Researchers at the Columbia Climate School, with support from the Rockefeller Foundation, have unveiled a new index that integrates countries’ vulnerabilities to natural and human-caused hazards with their ability to access financing to pay for prevention, recovery and rebuilding actions. The Climate Finance (CliF) Vulnerability Index’s interactive dashboard displays current and future risk exposure scenarios of 188 nations and identifies the 65 most at-risk, or “red zone” nations. Two-thirds of these countries are in Africa.
The goals of the index are to promote more comprehensive risk assessment standards, help agencies target resources to mitigate vulnerability, and more effectively reach communities facing disaster and financial risks."
