Graphic Design and Production Specialist, Scaling Index Insurance - and Lessons

Overview

Project Summary: The Gates Foundation funds a Tetra Tech-led study to examine the market for small-scale producer insurance, focusing on models, successes, challenges, and the role of subsidies, government, and technology. Small-scale producers, such as farmers and pastoralists, are crucial to the economy but face risks that threaten their livelihoods, particularly due to their reliance on rainfall and climate impacts. Climate change worsens these risks with unpredictable weather, damage, and losses.

Insurance helps protect them and is supported by organizations like the World Bank, UNDP, WFP, IFAD, governments, and the private sector. Despite its benefits, few producers adopt insurance because of high costs, low financial literacy, distrust, and infrastructure gaps. New technologies, such as mobile platforms and data analytics, offer opportunities to address these barriers.
