Climate Action Index
Making climate readiness visible. The Climate Action Index evaluates climate governance, risk exposure, fiscal readiness and transparency across Nigeria's 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory.
Live dashboard
Explore readiness across all 36 states + FCT.
This is the same interactive dashboard and Nigeria map published on climateactionindex.org, embedded here so the scores, tiers and map always match the source of record.

Baseline snapshot.
A national picture of subnational climate readiness. Even with measurable improvement in FY2025, most states remain below 30% readiness — gains at the top mask large disparities below.

Scoring weight
The 40 / 30 / 30 framework, in charts.
Readiness is scored from published evidence across three pillars and ten sub-metrics. The evidence rule is deliberate: absence of public evidence is scored 0 and flagged as a data gap, not assumed.
National average
Readiness movement, FY2024 → FY2025
Readiness rose 15.3 percentage points nationally, yet most states remain below 30% — the ceiling, not the floor, is what moved.

Why it matters
You cannot strengthen what you cannot see.
Climate risk lands first on states, schools and communities. Making readiness visible turns climate action into something people can track, debate and improve — and turns evidence gaps into a map of where support is most needed.
Engage
For governments and public institutions.
Index findings are the entry point to a State Climate Readiness Partnership: a structured programme that turns the assessment into an implementation plan.
