CRAF'd and partners allocated $3.5 million to five data-driven projects enhancing global crisis response for more than 110 million people, targeting displacement, migration, climate threats, and more. This investment will enable better anticipation of crisis earlier, faster, and more targeted way.

By partnering with CRAF'd, The Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre (IDMC) will use advanced data processing and analytics to improve the timeliness, accuracy, and scope of displacement data, enabling earlier, more targeted, and dignified assistance to more than 71 million displaced people.

In collaboration with CRAF’d, the International Organization for Migration (IOM) will improve the understanding and management of global mobility datasets with insights from over 60 countries. This initiative aims to improve data-driven decision-making and provide targeted support to people in fragile situations.

CRAF'd partnered with the Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD)-ICPAC on the E4DRR project to improve early warning systems for droughts and floods in East Africa. Using advanced hazard modelling and climate storylines, this project will improve disaster preparedness for 200 million people.

CRAF'd, in partnership with the Red Cross Red Crescent Climate Centre (RCCC), will pioneer multi-hazard risk datasets that integrate climate risk, displacement, and conflict data for sub-Saharan Africa and MENA. This initiative will empower ecosystem partners with data-driven decision-making.

In partnership with CRAF'd, UNDP will expand its data infrastructure, providing access to over 15,000 indicators across multiple risk factors. Using a generative AI interface and real-time analytics, this initiative will provide ecosystem partners with data to better anticipate, prevent, and respond to crises.

The Geoguard dashboard, supported by CRAF'd, employs geospatial technology to monitor water resources more comprehensively than ever, providing the UN and its partners with a strategic advantage in data-driven decision-making.

ACLED, in collaboration with WorldPop, presents the brand-new Conflict Exposure Calculator, that helps partners to measure the number of people exposed to each conflict incident or demonstration. Join experts exploring its role for better crisis action.

The Peace Research Institute Oslo (PRIO) presents latest enhancements to the Violence & Impacts Early Warning System. The focus will be on how the conflict forecasting system can be used to support ecosystem partners in their efforts to improve crisis response.

UNHCR's CLIFDEW-GRID Project, funded by CRAF’d, is diligently forging ahead, leveraging cutting-edge technology and expertise to develop a pivotal and innovative risk index for climate-induced displacement, strategically focusing on West and East Africa.

Dive into the CRAF’d-supported EEARTH project. Developed by the International Crisis Group, EEARTH is an innovative early warning system designed to identify climate-driven conflict pathways in the Horn of Africa by integrating quantitative and qualitative data.

In October 2023, the CRAF'd Steering Committee held its second annual meeting. The committee reiterated support for securing ACLED data as a common good and defined a roadmap for the selection from the recent open call for essential risk datasets.

Hosted by New York University and supported by CRAF'd and its partners, this conference brought together over 1,000 experts and practitioners to discuss how data, analytics, and AI can help us better anticipate, prevent, and respond to crises around the world.

In partnership with Gzero Media and the Early Warnings for All initiative, CRAF’d convened global leaders and change makers at the 78th UN General Assembly to discuss the potential of data, AI, and technology to address the most urgent challenges of our time.

Discover the achievements CRAF’d made in 2022. CRAF'd committed almost $20 million in allocations to improve crisis action. Less than a year after the Fund’s launch, more than 40,000 users in over 100 organizations are now using CRAF’d-supported data and insights.

In May 2023, CRAF’d and its partners allocated $4 million to six groundbreaking projects. Led by renowned organizations, these projects will use advanced analytics and artificial intelligence to address climate fragility risks and strengthen the global risk data ecosystem.

In April 2023, the CRAF’d Steering Committee held its first annual meeting. The Committee approved funding for crucial projects aimed at addressing climate fragility risks, furthering the Fund’s commitment to building a sustainable and well-governed global risk data ecosystem.

In partnership with the World Bank and the Global Partnership for Sustainable Development Data, CRAF’d convened global leaders at the 77th UN General Assembly to explore how new data ecosystems can unlock value for the biggest challenges of our time.
