The United Nations launched a new insurance scheme providing up to US$40 million for early disaster action. Led by OCHA and partnered with UNICEF and World Food Programme, the initiative aims to protect vulnerable communities before natural disasters strike. Under the scheme, OCHA allocates funding when forecasts indicate an approaching disaster, and insurers provide additional resources if demand exceeds an agreed threshold.
