It also discusses project outcomes and lessons learned, offering a blueprint for tech-enabled insurance in underserved regions.

The document describes the Sahel Climate Catastrophe Layer (SCCL) by the World Food Programme (WFP), a parametric insurance covering vulnerable populations against extreme droughts in Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger. The initiative enables rapid, pre-financed disaster response, complements national risk financing tools, and strengthens regional climate resilience.
