The most recent RIAB framework has replaced the use of Hazard, Exposure, Impact with a model where we essentially build a question. The layers are the same, however the labels are:
if ..
how many ...
will be ...

This has the appearance of a question and is a far more intuitive way of explaining what we are doing to non-experts. An example from the Jakarta Flood Contingency Planning work is:
If "there is a flood like 2007"
how many "schools"
will be "temporarily closed"

I think this will be along-term framework and worth getting it implemented as soon as possible.
