Disasters Trigger More Displacements than Conflicts, Says New ADB-IDMC Report

Global disasters accounted for more displacements in 2023 than conflict and violence, and governments and multilateral development banks must invest more to prevent and manage these crises, according to a new report jointly authored by ADB and the Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre (IDMC).

Data and Statistics   ADB's Data and Statistics

Data and statistical analysis in the Asia and Pacific region contributes to knowledge generation in ADB, helping strengthen its institutional priorities and operational effectiveness in its developing member countries.

Addressing the Climate Crisis

Developing Asia both suffers from and contributes to the climate crisis. The region generated about half of global GHG emissions in 2021, driven by rising domestic consumption, energy demand, and production. Without stronger mitigation efforts, the region will experience more extreme heat, floods, storms, and infectious diseases. However, the region is well-positioned to benefit from the transition to net-zero due to its substantial renewable energy generation potential.
