This evaluation aims to assess the impact of the FP068 "Scaling-up Multi-Hazard Early Warning System and the Use of Climate Information in Georgia" on vulnerable populations in flood-prone areas of Georgia. This UNDP project seeks to develop a proactive, integrated climate risk management approach by establishing a nationwide Multi-Hazard Early Warning System (MHEWS) and incorporating climate information into planning and decision-making processes. The impact evaluation specifically examines the impact of two sub-components of the project, Community-Based Early Warning Systems (CBEWS) and Community-Based Climate Risk Management (CBCRM), on household's resilience against climate shocks.
