In an effort to measure and highlight risks globally, the German Federal Foreign Office released the Climate-Conflict-Vulnerability Index. It shows the risks of climate change, such as drought, floods, and wildfire. It shows conflict, such as armed violence and societal tensions. It shows vulnerability, such as gender inequality, food insecurity, and soil degradation.
An interactive map lets you see all the parts together or separately. It’s a lot of variables to take in at once, but the tool helps you sift to get a feel for risks everywhere. You can also download data quarterly or the full historical time series to analyze and visualize yourself.
