New paper out! 🌍 We developed a natural hazard risk modeling approach to human displacement. 4 teams, 2 frameworks (CLIMADA, CIMA), 1 goal: better understanding displacement risk across multiple hazards and climate scenarios. Big thanks to amazing collaborators!

What if companies disclosed climate risk the same way insurers analyze it: with event-based probabilistic models that show what could happen, when, and with what likelihood?
