This report looks at the barriers, real and perceived, to adapting DRR policy and overseas development assistance to fragile or conflict-affected contexts.
There is a funding blind spot in disaster resilience: in the top 30 fragile states, for every $100 spent on emergency aid, just $1.30 is spent on Disaster Risk Reduction.
This report focuses on the links between conditions of vulnerability and risks associated with the nexus of natural disasters, conflict and fragility. The research recognises that any given context will be mired by an even more complex array of intersecting risks.
