What is its purpose?

The indicator provides a proxy measure of a country’s preparedness at the institutional level. At the endline stage, it can show the impact of an organization's advocacy and technical assistance activities.

How to Collect and Analyse the Required Data

This information can be collected through key informant interviews with the relevant stakeholders (disaster management agencies, emergency response actors) and a desk review. It is important to cross reference the data, as officials may be unaware of legislative details or what activities may constitute disaster risk management.
