01In brief

The short answer.

Governance Nexus country programmes are listed one by one, each country with a programme record showing its work on governance and institutions and its status. A country appears only when such a record exists; national institutions lead under country ownership, and the platform supplies evidence and methods.

02Canvas

Scoping to review.

Canvas · scoping to reviewDesign, not a record
National applications: risk as hazard, exposure and vulnerabilityRisk arises from the interaction of hazard, exposure and vulnerability (sensitivity and adaptive capacity); responses act on each driver and leave a residual risk that is monitored. Design of the process, not a record of a run.

03Geography

People and hazards in Asia.

For national applications, in GRF's situational-awareness reading, the map opens on population density and night lights with place names and borders from NASA GIBS, framed on Asia; every other NASA layer, live feed and forecast waits in the layer list.

The interactive map needs JavaScript; the layer list and sources are below.
