Vulnerability index
A vulnerability index is a measure of the exposure of a population to some hazard. Typically, the index is a composite of multiple quantitative indicators that via some formula, delivers a single numerical result. Through such an index “diverse issues can be combined into a standardised framework…making comparisons possible”.〔(The Climate Vulnerability Index:relevance to the Tourism Sector )〕 For instance, indicators from the physical sciences can be combined with social, medical and even psychological variables to evaluate potential complications for disaster planning.
The origin of vulnerability indexes as a policy planning tool began with the United Nations Environmental Program. One of the participants in the early task forces has also conducted secondary research documenting the evolution of the analytic tool through various stages.〔(List of Vulnerability Studies )〕 The term and methodology then expanded〔(Homelessness and the Vulnerability Index: A Guide to Registry Week Results in the Omaha Metro Region )〕 through medical literature and social work as discussed by Dr. James O'Connell of Boston Healthcare for the Homeless.〔O'Connor, James| Unpublished public forum presentation|University of Santa Barbara|Santa Barbara, California 2011〕
== Basic methodology ==
The basic methodology of constructing a vulnerability index is described by University of Malta researcher Lino Briguglio. The individual measures are weighted according to their relative importance. A cumulative score is then generated, typically by adding the weighted values. Decision trees can evaluate alternative policy options. Much of the original research has been evaluated by Lino Briguglio and presenters at Oxford, providing a body of secondary source material.
