The Index for Risk Management – INFORM SAHEL – is a way to understand and measure the risk of humanitarian crises and disasters and how the conditions that lead to them affect sustainable development. Such crises and disasters affect tens of millions of people every year all over the world. INFORM can help identify where and why crises and disasters are likely to occur so we can reduce the risks, build people’s resilience and prepare and respond better. By doing this, INFORM aims to contribute to reducing the human suffering caused by crises and disasters, as well as to protecting investments in development. INFORM Sahel model is based on more than 40 indicators and covers 9 countries and 132 regions.
