EW4All multi-stakeholder accelerator in LDCs and SIDS

Текущая ситуация

The Early Warnings for All Accelerator for LDCs and SIDS project targets seven countries: Comoros, Kiribati,  Madagascar, Mauritius, Nepal, Solomon Islands and Tonga. Economic and social life in these countries is intricately linked to climate and the natural environment, making them more vulnerable to climate variations and change. While the scale of disaster and climate impacts vary from country to country, the vulnerabilities in these countries stem from common factors: topography and complex geographies; reliance on climate-sensitive economic activities; water dependency; high debt burdens; and climate variability and emerging risks. 

The countries suffer from a combined average annual loss to disasters of over US$ 300 million.

Объем

To scale up and strengthen national Multi-Hazard Early Warning Systems (MHEWS) efforts in the seven focus countries through the implementation of the Early Warnings for All Initiative. The project will address gaps along the MHEWS value chain, identifying existing capacities and needs, mapping key stakeholders, and leveraging existing initiatives. It spans all four EW4All pillars: risk knowledge; observation, monitoring and forecasting; warning dissemination and communication; and preparedness to respond.
