Technical Documentation of the system in accordance with EU AI Act.
System Name: Climate Vulnerability App
Provider / Supplier: GIZ Data Lab & Data Service Center
As of: July 2025
General Description of the System The Climate Vulnerability App is an AI-powered tool to quickly retrieve and summarize relevant information on marginalised groups from (climate) policy documents, in order to enable users to get a broad overview of the extent to which different marginalised groups are represented in policies. This tool leverages fine-tuned transformer models to classify references related to pre-determined marginalised groups and an LLM of choice to summarize the most important information that has been identified.
Model's Used
Text Classification:
- Model Name: VULNERABILITY-multilabel-mpnet-multilingual-v2 (model will be released soon in public, in urgent cases please reach out to us via e-mail)
- Model Name: TARGET-VULNERABILITY-multiclass-mpnet (model will be released soon in public, in urgent cases please reach out to us via e-mail)
- Both models mentioned above are fine-tuned versions of the all-mpnet-base-v2
Generative LLM used for summaries:
- Model Name: meta-llama/Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct
Model Training Data:
- The data used to fine-tune the text classification model can be found here: vulnerability_training_data_full (will be released soon, in urgent cases please reach out to us via e-mail)
- The training data has been collected by human annotators that are expert in their fields
- The data does not contain any known bias, however some classes perform better than others (see model card) and risk of potential bias can never be fully excluded.
System Limitations and Non-Purposes
- The system is designed to provide a quick overview of the most relevant information on marginalised groups in climate policy
- The system is NOT designed to give an in-depth analysis of the document. Output may always be incomplete or falsly classified and should ALWAYS be reviewed by a human.
- The system does not make autonomous decisions but just provides information.
- No personal data of users is being processed.
- Results are intended for orientation only – not for legal or political advice.
Transparency Towards Users
- The user interface clearly indicates the use of a generative AI model and the use of text classification transformer models.
Monitoring, Feedback, and Incident Reporting
- Technical development is carried out by the GIZ Data Service Center.
