Overview
This dataset provides a technically validated, multi-sectoral and system-wide Nexus Risk Index for Afghanistan.
It contains 100 curated indicators (IND001–IND100), tailored to fragile and conflict-affected settings, covering climate, health, energy, infrastructure, food, water, security, governance, and environmental systems.
Methodological Foundations
IPBES Nexus Assessment (2024): Used as the core methodological framework
Data Sources: IPCC, INFORM Risk Index, WMO Global Indicators, GRACE, WGMS, ERA5, GPCC, OSI SAF, and more
Processing: Standardized, rebaselined, and interpolated using climate-model aligned adjustments, temporal smoothing, and system simulations
Validation: Expert-reviewed under the GCRI Nexus Ecosystem as part of the Nexus Reports quarterly cycle
Structure
Each indicator includes:
- Disaster Risk Intelligence (DRI): Specialized interpretation of system risk, derived from climate models, hazard projections, or sector disruption patterns
- Disaster Risk Financing (DRF): Tailored financial exposure, shock-buffering capacity, and anticipatory resource needs
- Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR): Mitigation and adaptation strategy options, aligned with Afghanistan's capacities and SDGs
License and Restrictions
⚠️ This dataset is not intended for sensitive or life-critical operations.
It is configured specifically for Nexus-based scenario modeling and anticipatory governance applications.
Adaptability to external tools and platforms requires expert interpretation.
