Despite research demonstrating the disproportionate effects of disasters on vulnerable groups, current risk modeling approaches lack robust methods to account for such equity concerns. Consequently, efforts to develop evidence-based disaster risk management interventions may lack awareness of differential risks in the settings where they are applied. Here, we draw on the relevant literature to develop a typology for characterizing current approaches to incorporating equity into risk modeling.

Going beyond building damage to support vulnerable populations' recovery needs after a disaster.

Evaluating how effective data integration for damage estimation with different data sources across different contexts.
