Why this moved — Index v1.0 → v1.1
Score changed from 90.9 (v1.0) to 91.8 (v1.1) when the Index expanded on 21 Oct 2026. Decomposed honestly:
- Methodology effect +0.9 — the indicator set grew from 9 to 16 (adding Protection and Environment & Exposure). This part of the change says something about the ruler, not about Mauritius.
- Data effect +0.0 — revised or newer values on the original v1.0 indicators. This is the part that reflects change in Mauritius itself.
It also left the ranked table (now provisional), because coverage is measured against a larger indicator set. The v1.0 table is kept in the v1.0 archive.
