- Index for Risk Management – InfoRM is a tool to for risk analysis and humanitarian preparedness. The tool identifies where crises requiring international assistance could possibly occur and analyzes this risk to enhance humanitarian preparedness. Consider using this approach down the district level of your operating environment as a preparedness and risk assessment exercise.
- District Profiling – A more direct and related version of risk mapping involves assembling profiles down to admin level 2 or lower or baseline information across the operational area. Analysts can use this type of information for hazard and risk mapping, preparedness, and dialogue with host government authorities. While no single tool for district profiling exists, the examples included will help guide the development of your context-specific tool. These risk and profile systems become powerful when overlaid with new data from emergencies and ongoing response to create sophisticated analytical pieces.
