Recovery investment prioritisation

Ranks reconstruction and resilience investments by impact, vulnerability and cost, so limited budgets go where they do the most good.

Coming soon

The problem

After a disaster, recovery budgets are limited and decisions are made under pressure. A transparent prioritisation makes trade-offs visible and defensible.

Planned approach

  • Damage estimates from the Response project, combined with social vulnerability and access to services.
  • Multi-criteria scoring with adjustable weights, so decision-makers can test their own priorities.
  • A “build back better” check: does the investment reduce future hazard, using the Prevention maps?

Deliverable

A ranked, filterable investment list with a map. This closes the loop back to Prevention.
