This paper answers the question: what is the state of knowledge of early warning and early action (EWEA) for climate hazards in countries affected by armed conflict and high levels of forced displacement?

The report offers a comprehensive analysis of the impact of the catastrophic February 2023 earthquakes on Syrian-owned businesses in Türkiye, focusing on the period from February 2023 to July 2024.

This study presents an overview of the Fund’s experience and lessons learned from addressing climate change adaptation and strengthening long-term resilience to climate change in fragile and conflict-afflicted countries.

This seismic risk profile of Syria, produced by the Global Earthquake Model (GEM) Foundation summarizes key metrics of seismic risk, allowing stakeholders in risk management to get an overview of the risk in the country.

Using novel data sources, this Syria economic monitor analyzes what happens to a conflict-affected economy in the months following a large disaster. Twelve years into a devastating civil war, a one-in-two-century earthquake devastated northwestern Syria.

This policy brief details the impact of this natural hazard on Syrians living under Temporary Protection in Türkiye and how it exacerbates their pre-existing precarious living conditions.

The Syria Rapid Damage and Needs Assessment assesses the impact of the February 2023 Turkiye-Syria earthquakes in the six most affected areas. It provides a preliminary estimate of infrastructure reconstruction and service delivery restoration needs.

The objective of the assessment is to develop a model-based estimate of the direct physical damages to residential buildings (houses) and non-residential buildings caused by the event, and to evaluate the spatial distribution of damages.
