FAO NEWS RELEASE - www.fao.org
New, open-source tool to support resilience-building
The Index for Risk Management (InfoRM) sheds new light on what drives crises -- and what communities need in order to face them
27 November 2014, Rome - Each year millions of people dependant on agriculture, forestry and fisheries are confronted by droughts, floods, plant pests or animal diseases, and conflict.
FAO has recently teamed up with a coalition of 15 partner agencies to develop a new tool to help national governments and development and humanitarian organizations in their efforts to prevent and respond to such situations.
