Strengthening the Early Warning Capacity of NMHSs in Low-Income Countries
2017年10月12日
Sustainable Development Goal 17 (SDG 17), which stresses the importance of partnership, is a global commitment to enhance support to developing countries, and in particular, to lower income countries and Small Island Developing States (SIDS). It reflects the international community’s recognition that the SDGs can only be realized through robust partnerships. At the backbone of this commitment is country-led monitoring of progress, the mobilization of additional financial resources and measuring the effectiveness of efforts.
This article explores the opportunities and incentives that SDG 17 – and related agreements reached in 2015 – provide to National Meteorological and Hydrological Services (NMHSs).These include improving the effectiveness of information service delivery, contributing to national adaptation plans for climate resilience and sustainable development, and building the case for greater access to climate and other financing.
