In the second risk pool, £4.5m has been stretched to £7.3m to protect communities against droughts, floods, cyclones and heatwaves in Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), Somalia, Pakistan, Philippines, Bangladesh, Madagascar and Senegal. Sarah Klassen, Start Ready Programme Manager, provides reflections on the decision-making process to structure funding for the second risk pool and why this year is an important one for Start Ready. 

It was an eventful start, with 6 heatwave activations in Pakistan within the first two days of the risk pool going live.

Start Network is delighted to announce that Start Ready has officially gone live, protecting people in six countries against predictable climate shocks.
