NAXA has been awarded the Asian Disaster Preparedness Center’s (ADPC) Climate Innovation Challenge (CIC) 2021 Grant in the thematic area: Risk Financing Solutions. NAXA is developing a software system that comprises customizable toolkits capable of assessing household-level vulnerability and risk factors (using a mobile application and a web application) based on custom criteria and a wide range of parameters set up as per local settings in Bheemdatt Municipality of Kanchanpur District. The system will be capable of visualizing both the aggregation and disaggregation of collected data into a web portal. The portal will provide both spatial and attributes visualization of household vulnerability and risk, thus serving as a decision-making tool for the government or humanitarian agencies in evidence-based risk financing. In addition, Disaster Preparedness and Response Plan (DPRP) can be auto-generated from the system for each house to be used during emergency situations.The project was implemented in ward 12 & 13 of Bheemdatta Municipality of Farwest Province of Nepal for evidence-based decision support to plan effective risk financing strategies. This project is the recipient of Climate Innovation Challenge (CIC): Innovations for Climate Adaptation and Resilience challenge organized by ADPC, Thailand. The CIC aims to crowdsource innovative and disruptive technology solutions from around the world for resilience in South Asia. The program for Asia Resilience to Climate Change was a trust fund administered by the World Bank and funded by the United Kingdom’s Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO).
