in the last few decades, flash flooding has cost switzerland hundreds of millions of pounds. resilience for us is notjust a new buzzword like sustainability or something else. the big challenge of resilience is that you often don't see it until the event has happened. so what we want to have is a set of strong indicators that tell you something about what might resilience look like if something happens and then how can we strengthen those indicators, so it is all about not being derailed and not falling into a poverty trap, despite that there are risks out there. the algorithm measures all the indicators and it generates a numerical value on how resilient population is. so this helps us use what we call engineering judgement, or expertjudgement, to start sorting and organising the data so you can come up with these numerical scores things and i think that is a unique approach that we have.

by his side, and i would say, here in switzerland, particularly in geneva, the whole of the un's humanitarian organisations, there is real grief. he really supported the work of those organisations, never lost his awareness of how many people on the planet are caught up in conflict affected by climate change, caught up simply just in grinding poverty. and he consistently drew attention to those issues. and that work meant that switzerland had been home for him, on and off, for quite a while, hadn't it? that's right. he lived in geneva, even after he had left the position of un secretary general. he lived there, we saw him regularly. he took part in debates. his kofi annan foundation was very active. he never seemed to retire. he remained dedicated to the cause of promoting the interests of the world's most vulnerable, until the very end. yes, there was a reflection a moment ago, for example,
