United Nation Final Multidimensional Vulnerability Index Report

United Nation Final Multidimensional Vulnerability Index Report

These shocks span diverse domains, such as terms of trade fluctuations, natural disasters, supply disruptions, conflicts, civil unrest, and unprecedented shocks such as the COVID-19 pandemic.
