Disaster risk financing: Annual report 2025

The 2025 Disaster Risk Financing (DRF) Annual Report highlights key insights and achievements from WFP-supported DRF programmes. It provides deep dives into the DRF programmes in each country, as well as stories from the field, interviews with partners and insights into how WFP promotes the use of pre-arranged financing to help vulnerable populations prepare for, respond to and recover from weather-related disasters.

In 2025, WFP’s disaster risk financing (DRF) portfolio continued to build on earlier investments, strengthening its impact and further consolidating DRF as a core risk management tool. WFP’s DRF programmes provided financial protection to 4.9 million people across 44 countries and triggered approximately US$18 million in payouts enabling early, targeted assistance for people affected by weather-related shocks.
