Vulnerability Index

The Vulnerability Index is a measurement used to assess how susceptible a community or region is to harm from various threats, such as natural disasters, economic downturns, or social issues. It considers factors like poverty, healthcare access, education, and infrastructure quality. By analyzing these elements, the index helps identify which areas may be at greater risk and need more support or resources. This information is valuable for policymakers and organizations aiming to enhance resilience and improve living conditions for vulnerable populations.
