Overview

Indonesia, an archipelago of more than 17,000 islands, is situated in the ‘ring of fire’. It is vulnerable to floods, earthquakes and tsunamis, and is home to 77 active volcanoes. On average, 650,000 people are annually affected by disasters. In 2015/16, Indonesia was impacted initially by El Niño that caused drier than normal conditions affecting agriculture and food security and thereafter by La Nina which caused higher than average precipitation in the later part of 2016 Indonesia continues to build on its relatively strong capacity to respond to rapid-onset natural disasters.
