INFORM Risk Index: Uprooted people vulnerability

Understanding why and where humanitarian disasters are likely to occur is a fundamental step in saving lives and promoting sustainable development. The main focus of humanitarian organizations is people. Refugees, internally displaced persons (IDPs) and returnees are among the most vulnerable people in a humanitarian crisis. As part of the Vulnerability dimension of the INFORM Risk Index (global risk assessment for humanitarian crises and disasters), the Uprooted people component accounts for those persons of concern. The risk score ranges from 0-10, where 10 is the highest risk.
