注記

Summary: The book provides an overview on the status and strategies of implementation in various risk sectors (life, health and natural disaster risks), highlighting existing methods, best practices and specific case studies of microinsurance programmes and initiatives. Particular attention is placed on microinsurance tools that are capable of reducing the damage caused by natural disasters and unexpected hazards. The publication contains fifteen papers which all focus -- from different perspectives -- on an integrated approach in risk and disaster management through microinsurance. Case studies from Africa, Asia and Latin America involving a broad variety of stakeholders, institutions, risks, methods, and business models, reveal the enormous potential of microinsurance in particular in disaster management
