INFORM 2015

INFORM is a new way to measure the risk of humanitarian crises and disasters. INFORM can help identify where and why a crisis might occur, which means we can reduce the risk, build peoples’ resilience and better prepare for when crises do happen.

INFORM is...

Available for 191 countries

Free and open to all

Based on the best methods and regularly updated

You can use INFORM to‌. Prioritise countries by risk, or any of its components

Decide how best to reduce risk

Monitor risk trends

INFORM can be adapted... ...for your organisation or region and the same methodology can be used for national and regional risk assessment.

4


HOW IT WORKS

INFORM simplifies a lot of information about risk. It uses 50 different indicators to measure hazards and peoples’ exposure to them, vulnerability, and the resources available to help people cope.

INFORM creates a risk profile for every country. Each has a rating between 0 and 10 for risk and all of its components, so its easy to compare.

INFORM 2015

RISK OF HUMANITARIAN CRISES AND DISASTERS

The overall INFORM risk index identifies countries at risk from humanitarian crises and disasters that could overwhelm national response capacity. It is made up of three dimensions – hazards and exposure, vulnerability and lack of coping capacity. This map shows details for the 12 countries with the highest overall risk.

HAZARDS & EXPOSURE

This dimension of INFORM measures hazardous events that could occur and the people or assets potentially affected by them. It is made up of two categories – natural hazards and human hazards. This map shows details for the 12 countries with the highest values in the hazard & exposure dimension.

Prioritising using risk level and trends Risk

INFORM can be used to group countries based on their current level of risk and the trend over previous years. For example, large increases in countries already with high levels of risk could be used to prioritise them for increased crisis and disaster prevention, preparedness and response.

INFORM 2015

WHY WE NEED INFORM 9

INFORM was developed in response to recommendations by numerous organisations (e.g. the World Bank, OCHA) to improve shared evidence for risk analysis, as well as the real demands of INFORM partner organisations. The more organisations that use INFORM, the more effective we will be at reducing suffering, increasing resilience and contributing to sustainable development. INFORM is the first open-source index specifically designed for analysing the risk of humanitarian crises and disasters. This chart shows a comparison between INFORM and the Human Development Index (HDI). The named countries are those with the greatest positive discrepancy between INFORM and the HDI. The high risk of crisis and disaster in these countries is not captured in the HDI, justifying the need for an additional tool like INFORM to support decisions on crisis and disaster prevention, preparedness and response.

USE EXAMPLE: INFORM and INTERNATIONAL DRR FINANCE

One of the purposes of INFORM is to improve the evidence base for making decisions about the allocation of resources for crisis and disaster prevention, preparedness and response. Ideally, resources would be broadly aligned with risk to have maximum impact. This chart shows one simple example of how INFORM can be used to analyse resource allocation and funding. When compared with INFORM, international finance for disaster risk reduction (DRR) shows very little or no correlation. This suggests that spending on DRR does not always go to where the risk is highest. Unfortunately, data on DRR spending is quite poor, preventing a more detailed analysis.
