Multi-country Project Advancing Early Warnings for All (EW4All)

Multi-country Project Advancing Early Warnings for All (EW4All)

Worldwide, vulnerable communities face increasing risks due to the growing intensity, geographic extent and frequency of climate-related hazards, exacerbated by rising temperatures associated with climate change. Hazards like heatwaves, floods, landslides and droughts cause devastating loss of lives and assets, socio-economic instability and inequality. It is essential to enhance the ability of these communities to anticipate, prepare for and respond.

This project aims to strengthen the resilience of communities in seven countries (Antigua and Barbuda, Chad, Cambodia, Ecuador, Ethiopia, Fiji, and Somalia) by improving the production, dissemination and effective use of Multi-Hazard Early Warning Systems (MHEWS).   It will accelerate access to global and regional technical and operational support for these countries to develop comprehensive MHEWS, address policy gaps, inter-agency coordination and strategies, build technical and scientific capacities, and promote effective local action.

Implemented through the national governments of the seven countries with support from UNDP and the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNDRR), International Telecommunication Union (ITU) and International Federation of Red Cross (IFRC) and other relevant partner agencies, this project will accelerate Early Warnings for All (EW4All) through coordinated global support involving all the key actors across the climate information and early warnings value chain.

GCF's Project Preparation Facility (PPF) support was deployed to help develop the project.
