How it Works

The Drought Resilience Index turns many indicators into one comparable score. Here is the pipeline.

1

Collect indicators

30+ drought-relevant indicators per country across built environment, natural environment, economy, and people & community.

2

Score three dimensions

Indicators roll up into the three resilience dimensions — Anticipate, Prepare, Adapt.

3

Composite DRI

Dimensions combine into a single 0–100 Drought Resilience Index, with arithmetic or geometric aggregation.

4

Explore & ask

Compare countries on the map, drill into domains, and ask IDROki to interpret any of it in plain language.
