Final Report: Innovating Disaster Microinsurance for Local Market Recovery

Small business disaster insurance could improve recovery of local markets that play a critical role in providing goods, services and livelihoods to vulnerable disaster affected populations in urban settings. This innovation adapts proven microfinance mechanisms to address a major part of the humanitarian crisis recovery process for which standards do not exist. As an insurance programme, this innovation aims to enhance resilience among the small enterprises that are vital to these communities. This final project report provides information on the methodology, activities, outputs, impact and dissemination of learning.
