ICF KPI 4 methodology: Number of people whose resilience has been improved as a result of International Climate Finance

Details

This is one of the key performance indicators (KPIs) used for reporting on our International Climate Finance (ICF) portfolio. The results against this indicator and the other KPIs can be found in the ICF results publications.

ICF KPI 4 is an outcome indicator that measures the success of UK climate change adaptation programming. It counts the number of people with an improvement in climate resilience due to the ICF programme. Although this ICF KPI specifically concerns changes in the climate resilience of individuals, it is recognised that this also depends on the climate resilience of their context, including household, community, infrastructure, systems and ecosystems.

ICF KPI 4 directly relates to Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 13: take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts. It particularly targets SDG 13.1: strengthen resilience and adaptive capacity to climate-related hazards and natural disasters in all countries.
