Afghanistan - Nexus Risks Index

## 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. ## Technical Documentation - File formats: `.csv`, `.txt`, `.md` - Metadata compliant with HDX and GitHub standards - For full documentation, visit: [https://therisk.global](https://therisk.global) ## Contact For support or inquiries: 📧 contact@therisk.global 🌐 [https://therisk.global](https://therisk.global) Files (slice {"file": url}): - Afghanistan_Nexus_Risk_Index.csv (csv): https://data.humdata.org/dataset/017e288e-57ef-46dd-ba90-fccc3a4b447f/resource/18455b90-1592-478a-a3e8-6d8a30ddbd14/download/afghanistan_nexus_risk_index.csv
