Comprehensive Automated Risk Assessment (CARA) web-based tool adapted for subnational jurisdictional risk assessment for Libya. # Libya CARA **Comprehensive Assessment of Risk Analytics — Libya national and subnational risk dashboard** Libya CARA is a bilingual (Arabic primary, English secondary) subnational disaster and crisis risk assessment platform for Libya. It produces a headline INFORM Risk Index score at the national level and across 106 municipalities, decomposed into the three INFORM pillars (Hazard & Exposure, Vulnerability, Lack of Coping Capacity) and into 34 individual indicators with full data provenance and "data not available" handling. This is an operational, jurisdiction-specific deployment, not a generic template.

The application is gated behind the `CARA_ACCESS_PASSWORD` session secret and is intended for official Libyan government use only. It is not a public website. - **Languages:** Modern Standard Arabic (primary, RTL) and English (secondary, LTR) on every page, every dashboard tile, every action plan item, and every methodology note. - **Out of scope by design:** the armed-clashes / political-violence domain present in the upstream INFORM model is intentionally omitted from the published risk score. The legacy US-specific active-shooter, NCES, and Gun Violence Archive components have been fully removed. ## What you get - A national dashboard at `/dashboard/LY` and a per-municipality dashb …
