G-CLI2* - Households Reporting Reduced Vulnerability

G-CLI2* - % (percentage) of households reporting a reduction in their vulnerability to natural hazards over the past 12 months

Assess perceived change in ability to cope with shocks.

Definition of key concepts

• Vulnerability reduction: Movement to “Somewhat better/Much better” vs. 12 months prior.

• Natural hazards: Locally prevalent risks (floods, storms, droughts, etc.).

Survey question

Compared to one year ago, how would you describe your household’s ability to cope with disasters or extreme events (e.g., floods, storms, droughts)? (Much worse / Somewhat worse / About the same / Somewhat better / Much better)

Scoring

(Number of respondents reporting ‘ Somewhat better’ + ‘Much better’ / Total number of respondents surveyed) x 100
