Potential for Risk Financing to Support Shock-Responsive Education Services
This scoping study was initiated by the International Rescue Committee with funding from the World Bank Global Shield Financing Facility and analytical support from Lion’s Head Global Partnersexplores. It explores how disaster risk financing (DRF) and climate finance can support more resilient education systems in low- and middle-income countries. It highlights how natural hazards-such as floods, earthquakes, and cyclones-threaten educational infrastructure and learning outcomes. Despite growing global DRF and climate finance mechanisms, education remains underfunded and poorly integrated. The paper presents models and case studies demonstrating how DRF tools can protect education access, planning, and recovery, and offers practical recommendations to align finance and education systems for better shock-responsiveness and resilience.

El Salvador
Northern Central America continues to experience a protracted humanitarian crisis, and the UN reports that more than 800,000 people are in need of protection services. The International Rescue Committee serves individuals and families in El Salvador who survive violence and displacement, as well as people who are at high risk of displacement, returnees, migrants and refugees. IRC and our partners implement programs that provide immediate support such as information, cash transfer for food and shelter and psychological first aid. IRC El Salvador provides case management to women and child survivors of violence; operates safe spaces for women, children and the LGBTQ+ population; and works with national NGOs to implement proven community programs to reduce the risk of violence.
