WFP and UNCDF piloted cyclone parametric insurance in Fiji for ~325 vulnerable households. This macro–micro model enabled payouts via mobile wallets within 3–5 days after disasters, offering financial protection to the poorest social welfare recipients.

In El Salvador, most small farmers and micro-entrepreneurs face frequent economic and climate shocks without adequate insurance. To bridge this gap, the World Food Programme and local partners are piloting an innovative insurance solution covering over 950 farmers and micro-entrepreneurs (46% women) against business interruption caused by excess rainfall, drought, or earthquakes.
