Governments face significant fiscal challenges in preparing for and responding to natural disasters. Relief, recovery, and reconstruction efforts often need to balance limited fiscal capacity against urgent economic, social and humanitarian demand pressures.

We work with national governments and international organisations like the World Bank to help design and implement appropriate disaster risk financing strategies to better prepare for disaster events and build national resilience.

Engaged between 2018-2020 to assist the design and development of policy and governance options for a national pooling fund.

Ongoing consultancies (2019-2023) with the World Bank in relation to:

• risk financing governance

• pooling fund design, and

• preparing and presenting webinars on disaster risk financing issues.
