Review: The proposed Community Owned Vulnerability and Capacity Assessment (COVACA) Tool explored in this report results from an investigation and analysis of existing VACA research material and, more importantly, an intensive community-centred design process in which methodology was developed, tested and refined in four African countries. The approach encompassed in the COVACA is one that is truly owned and driven by the community. It is a tool that is equally applicable to both development and disaster management professionals. Includes the COVACA instruction manual
