  3. Hazard-related outcomes • Major natural hazards in Central Asia and the Caucasus • drought, floods, extreme temperatures, landslides and earthquakes • Consequences (disaster event) = hazard exposure x vulnerability • Non-natural hazards • land mines • global financial crises, food price increases

  4. Hazard-related outcomes Drought

  5. Hazard-related outcomes Drought → water

  6. Hazard-related outcomes Drought → water → energy

  7. Hazard-related outcomes Cold ↓ Drought → water → energy →

  8. Hazard-related outcomes Cold ↓ Drought → water → energy → Home/ School Heating
